My name is Michelle.

I’m your new project management buddy. My mission is to help businesses tactically get the value from the initiatives they’ve started while strategically plotting out a roadmap for running their projects long-term. To do that, I believe it’s key to win folks over with meeting commitments and building trust using best in class tools and best practices. My goal is to help you understand the power of putting people first, devising processes that make sense for what you are doing and then automating with technology. Always with a 90-day success plan to create recurring wins for the business!

Services

From Project and Portfolio Management (PPM) assessments and strategic advisory to project management execution and recovery, I’m here to help your business and project teams deliver value early and often.

Are you ready to…

Figure out why initiatives are over budget or past their predicted end date?

It’s not enough to just create a schedule and a budget – set and forget it doesn’t really work. Businesses want to know when an effort is going to be done, how much is done, how much it will cost and how much is spent. Let’s create success by doing just that!

Pull your projects out of the ditch or put out the fires of issues plaguing them?

Your projects could be going sideways, and you’re not sure what to do about it. You need to start by digging into the issues and risks, cleaning them up with urgency while making sure the team truly understands ‘who does what when.’

Turn your portfolio of projects around by developing a roadmap for improvement?

If you are being asked to do more with less, it’s critical to maximize your people and pick the projects that matter to the business. Take the guesswork out of it by devising a plan to incrementally improve your results and make changes one step at a time.

Grow the skills of your project managers and get results from quick wins?

The success of your projects starts with your people. Do your project managers, ‘Get it’, ‘Want it, and ‘Can do it’? Find out by assessing their skills and coaching them up. Plus, it’s important to measure what you expect to hold the team accountable along the way.

Having worked in major IT companies for the last 21 years I have yet to meet a more professional and competent manager than Michelle. I set the bar very high with regards to making recommendations, but Michelle has set the new standard. Completely trustworthy and reliable, I have no reservations in saying that Michelle will outperform whatever your expectations are.
