Leading people and departments
Building capable, motivated teams
An experienced, flexible technical team manager who takes ownership and builds a successful group of skilled, capable individuals — establishing trust quickly and leading from the front.
Leading multi-team structures
Capable of leading a multi-team structure across international boundaries, with a wide variety of goals and objectives. Skilled at giving departmental focus and clear goals — organising and putting the right people in place to achieve them.
From conception to completion
Versed in defining business cases and leading projects from conception to completion. While capable of immediate decision-making, I'm a strong believer in operational planning and risk management. Departmental and team structures should match an overall strategic plan — and I define and control the roadmap for technical delivery.
Objectives that connect people to goals
Establish departmental objectives linked to team and individual objectives — achievable, measurable and concise. I use personal development plans to help employees identify their own growth and career direction, plus the steps and support needed to reach it.
Quality as the foundation
Much of my approach is built on quality controls — defining current status through gap analysis and risk assessment, then pushing improvements across all aspects of the SDLC and the product or service. Ultimately, customer numbers and satisfaction are the final metrics that prove success.
End-to-end efficiency
End-to-end efficiency from conception to support. Every team needs to work together toward the same overall objectives — which often means restructuring and applying agile methods to suit the occasion.
