My Value Proposition—Economic, Operational Effectiveness & Efficiency
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".
I`d Prefer to Work With Private Enterprise Over Government and Public Administration So what makes some government organizations different from private enterprise, and how do those differences influence project management?
Here are a few things I consider:
| Functions & Processes of Project Management WHAT I AIM TO KNOW REALLY WELL
Functional [Transferable] Skills WHAT I CAN DO and Love to Do with Data/Statistics, People, or Things
Building Workplace Interpersonal Effectiveness "He who knows others is learned. He who knows himself is wise."— Lao Tzu
Self-Management Skills or Traits | Temperaments | Style HOW I CONDUCT MYSELF Alone or with Others

I take great pride in doing my work accurately and especially excel in specialized or technical tasks due to my attention to detail. 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. 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.
