The one constant throughout my career in Information Technology has been facilitating organizational changes; systems, behaviors, activities, and habits from the current state to the future state.
I’m still learning new things every day! This site was designed to share my learnings with you, both through key LinkedIn posts and my offering to speak to your group, team, or group on related topics.
I’ve worn numerous hats throughout my career, such as:
“Navigator”
Guiding teams and projects with a collaborative and supportive approach.
“Connector”
Translating between people with different expertise to reach our goals.
“Facilitator”
Enabling better collaboration through structured conversations.
“Leader”
Building teams of people through encouragement, support, and coaching.
I have learned the following key lessons:
- Involve the right people early and often. The ones doing the work.
- Identify the true real problem before designing a solution.
- Look at projects through the lens of people, process, and tools.
- Change life cycles differ from Project life cycles.
- Resistance to change is often a sign of faulty plans and/or execution.
- The key to understanding and learning is to listen more than you speak.
- Once you lose someone’s trust it’s difficult to regain it.
I’m on a journey to learn more about these and other topics, and share what I learn with others.
Connect with me if we share similar interests and you want to support each other.
