about me
My Story
With over thirty years of experience in strategy creation, my work primarily as Chief Operating Officer (COO) and Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) and comparable roles has honed my skills, specializing in crafting strategy plans, maps, and playbooks, along with execution plans and dashboards for diverse businesses, ranging from startups to complex organizations in both public and private sectors. My approach blends art and science, aiming to create compelling futures and operationalize them for tangible value creation for stakeholders.
My unique value proposition lies in my ability to guide organizations in clarifying the value-creating paths to their goals. I excel in aligning teams' efforts with their purpose, vision, or mission. My top two key strengths, as identified by CliftonStrengths, are Futuristic and Strategic. These strengths enable me to help envision future possibilities and navigate through competing priorities and actionable initiatives, leading to tangible success.

Envisioning Tomorrow, Creating Today:
Having learned from experience, I must emphasize the importance of anchoring strategic work to an organization's core purpose. As a cornerstone to successful strategy formulation and organizational engagement, it goes beyond being just a starting point. I ensure that organizational strategies align with this core purpose and unique business interests, providing a clear, practical direction for decision-making. I am dedicated to creating strategies that genuinely resonate with the organization's essence, delivering tangible results.

Planning:
- Strategy Formation: In this stage, strategies are formed based on the vision. Strategic capabilities and resource and capital allocation reviews are conducted. Detailed, milestone-driven strategies, initiatives, and metrics are then developed.
Execution:
