Why Projects Fail and How to Improve Their Success

Fearless Sr Project Manager with passion for leadership | Unwavering commitment to results within global, cross-functional organizations With every project, whether through documentation, time and cost-saving initiatives, or risk management, my goal is to transform my team into a well-oiled machine. I have taken the worst-performing team in an organization and moved them to the top. My tenacious focus on process and results has earned me recognition for exceeding benchmarks and piloting efficient, sustainable procedures for optimal outcomes. Career highlights include: AMGEN ➤Reduced Regulatory Submission process response time by 75% while reducing costs by 86% ➤Reduced timeline for a data review process from 6 months to 6 weeks NEKTAR THERAPEUTICS ➤Reduced label generation time by 40% and waste by 30% ➤Improved 7 key processes in Document Control to boost processing by 80% ➤Transferred technology and assembly lines to two contract manufacturers in the U.K. and AZ in 4 months UNIFIRST ➤Cleaned 4-year backlog of orders in 6 months and reduced turnaround time by 75% ➤Improved customer satisfaction and increased referrals by 20% “Tough but Fair” My special passion is mentoring. Whether leading employee training programs or presenting at conferences, there’s nothing more satisfying than bringing out the best in others to help the organization boost profits, save time, and run more efficiently. I build strong relationships with teams, managers, and stakeholders – they appreciate that I’m very upfront with them, but they know I like to have fun, too. As a result, they welcome the chance to work with me again. Because project management is in my DNA, ongoing professional development is a priority. I earned PMP and PMI-ACP certification, an MBA, and a Six Sigma Green Belt while working full-time.
