“Find a job you enjoy doing, and you will never have to work a day in your life.”―Mark Twain

Many project challenges and failures catch executives by surprise. But not all such surprises are truly unforeseeable—if you know where to look!

Resourceful & knowledgeable—I have a very good understanding of tactical and strategic project management theory, frameworks, techniques, methodologies, foundational standards, practice standards and good/approved best practices.

Continuous learning and putting knowledge into action are hallmarks of my work!  

Earned accreditations—PMP® Project Management Professional, MoP® Portfolio Management Practitioner, PRINCE2® Project Management Practitioner and ITIL® IT Service Management, Foundation.

It's important to note that being a certified project manager doesn't necessarily make you better than any other project manager. It just indicates that you have a certain level of knowledge and expertise, and that you can work proficiently in a project environment. Organizations are increasingly looking for certified project managers because the presence of a certified project manager on a project will increase the odds of project success. The assumption is that someone who has devoted thousands of hours to preparing for his/her certification exams plus ongoing participation in professional development activities, for instance, has learned something that will help keep the project running on time and on budget. Maintaining certification keeps you relevant and helps you better position yourself as the answer to what companies’ demand.

Noteworthy: These are the representative functions/processes of project management for which I am knowledgeable & well trained. <<View Listing>>

Organizational Standards Are Important

A standard is a document, established by consensus and approved by a recognized body, which provides for common and repeated use, rules, guidelines or characteristics for activities or their results, aimed at the achievement of the optimum degree of order in a given context. Developed under a process based on the concepts of consensus, openness, due process, and balance. Standards provide guidelines for achieving specific project, program and portfolio management results.
