Open to Project Management Support and Oversight Work—as an Employee, Contractor or Subcontractor I really enjoy supporting people and organizations who strive to optimize their tactical and strategic business practices. Located in Canada's National Capital Region, Ottawa-Gatineau. Well-trained & accredited, having earned PMP® - Project Management Professional, MoP® - Portfolio Management Practitioner, PRINCE2® Project Management Practitioner and ITIL® IT Service Management-Foundation certifications. I`d prefer working with private enterprise over government organizations.
A Project's Success A project's success is measured by product & project quality, timeliness, budget compliance, and degree of customer & stakeholders' satisfaction. I can help to strike a balance, to find and deliver to your organization's sweet spot.
My Ideal Work Environment I like an environment where tasks and projects can be followed through to completion, and especially excel in specialized or technical tasks due to my attention to detail. I feel most safe when there is procedure and routine, and when given instructions and reassurance that I am doing what is expected of me. I desire independence and autonomy, but also a controlled and organized work environment.
I`d Prefer to Work With Private Enterprise Over Government Organizations So what makes government organizations different from private enterprise, and how do those differences influence project management?
Here are a few things I consider:
|
Personal Characteristics Because I focus on the details and often see what many others do not, I tend to be a good problem solver and very creative. I think very analytically and systematically, and make decisions carefully with plenty of research and information to back it up. Adaptable, trainable and trustworthy—with a very good knowledge-base of tactical and strategic project management theory, frameworks, techniques, methodologies, foundational standards, practice standards and good/approved best practices. I take great pride in doing my work accurately and am excellent at analyzing, researching, or testing information. I ask important questions and talk about problems that could hold up projects. Speaking "truth to power" is important to me. An instinctive organizer, who can both create and maintain systems. Precise, detail-oriented and conscientious—I take great pride in being accurate and correct. I am a "do it yourself" manager who maintains focus on tasks and will see something through until it's finished. I emphasize quality, think logically, and strive for a diplomatic approach and consensus within groups. I have very high standards for both myself and others. I bring perspective to groups and tend to be the "anchor of reality" in team thought. When something is proposed, I will think through every detail of how it works and the process. I will make realistic estimates and will voice the problems that I see with the plan or already existing system. I am conscientious and even-tempered. I will complete tasks I've committed to and will be very thorough.
