for the opportunities in existing/new areas.
Hands on experience in Transition management where I was involved in transitioning
multimillion dollar projects successfully.
Building relationships with alliance partners to work with them in providing
customer with innovative ideas/solutions that will enable best results.
Keen instincts to quickly effect change and improvement with key expertise in
visualizing, designing and executing business process re-engineering and relationship
marketing programs. Excellent experience in change management.
Proved multi- tasking capabilities with strong ability to plan, prioritize and manage
complex projects under aggressive time lines.
Excellent market research and competitive analysis skills, with good experience in
data collection, synthesis and documentation.
Strong leadership talents, ”team player” attitude and sprit, and the ability to establish
consensus among cross-functional lines.
With strong communication skills and dynamic presentation/ public speaking style, let
me also note that one of my strengths is my ability to build relationships within and outside an
organization.
As described, this position sounds like a perfect match, and I would very much appreciate
the chance for an interview. Thank you in advance for your time.
