Optimizing Multi-Stakeholder IT Projects

I specialize in optimizing multi-stakeholder IT projects, drawing from over 20 years of experience in managing complex initiatives involving cross-functional teams. My approach focuses on delivering IT solutions that align with the needs of diverse stakeholders, including business leaders, technical teams, and third-party vendors.

Key Expertise:

Stakeholder Engagement: I have successfully managed relationships with major stakeholders, such as Microsoft, Apple, and Dell, during large-scale IT transformations, ensuring that all parties are aligned and communication is seamless.

Cross-Departmental Collaboration: I excel at facilitating collaboration between business and technical teams, ensuring that project goals are met without compromising quality or timelines. This was key in projects like the Suncor Zero Trust Initiative and the Capilano University M365 Transformation.

Project Risk Management: My experience includes mitigating risks associated with complex stakeholder environments, such as those in the University of Calgary Black Diamond Migration Project, where I managed over 270+ applications and 500+ appliances, navigating challenges across departments and ensuring a successful outcome.

Tools & Methodologies: I employ best practices from Agile, Waterfall, and Six Sigma methodologies to optimize project delivery and streamline communication. I also leverage tools like JIRA, MS Project, and Power BI for tracking progress and managing stakeholder expectations.

By fostering collaboration and utilizing advanced project management techniques, I ensure that multi-stakeholder IT projects are delivered on time, within scope, and aligned with business goals.
