Collaboration Strategy Consultant at Gestalt Effect
Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina Area
In today's environment, meeting business objectives is becoming more difficult. Developing a collaborative enterprise is one way to gain an advantage on the competition and better meet objectives. Through effective collaboration organizations can
* Drive Innovation
* Improve Business Processes
* Reduce Expenses
* Leverage Knowledge and Talent within the Organization
With my background and experience, I can help your organization become more collaborative.
I have been trying to figure out how to break down the barriers that exist between organizational groups since my first job, as an engineer. Every step along my career path I have observed:
*Failure to communicate is a leading cause of inefficiency and ineffectiveness;
*The need to hoard information and not share is a barrier to innovation.
Only in the last few years have I accumulated the experience and developed the knowledge to begin to address these organizational issues. Combining what I have learned in the areas of Organization Development, Project Management, and Information Technology, I have developed an understanding of how to create a collaborative organization.
