Summary
Enterprise Transformation Leader | Aligning Technology, Business Operations, and People to Achieve Strategic Change I am an #EnterpriseTransformation leader with 30 years of experience in driving #DigitalAdoption, #OperationalScaling, and #StrategicProgramManagement. My expertise lies in bridging silos across #Technology, #BusinessOperations, and teams to drive measurable outcomes. Throughout my career, I have been passionate about transforming complex environments into agile, well-aligned enterprises. I specialize in cross-functional #Collaboration, aligning IT, sales, and finance to achieve sustainable #BusinessGrowth. My focus areas include: • Digital Adoption: Guiding #DigitalTransformation by integrating technology that drives efficiency. • Cross-Functional Alignment: Breaking down silos between business units to work cohesively. • Program Leadership: Leading complex, multi-million-dollar initiatives that align corporate goals. Key Achievements: • Successfully scaled claims processing for a major healthcare organization by 100 million claims per year through detailed system mapping and transformation. • Reached consensus across business units at a financial services institution, leading to a bank-wide PMO and increased operational efficiency. • Spearheaded Amazon’s Appstore launch, collaborating across six teams, contributing to over $300 million in revenue. As a transformation executive, I take a people-first approach, focusing on cultural change and alignment as the real drivers of transformation. Whether leading enterprise-wide transformation, advising on strategic initiatives, or taking on #InterimExecutive roles, I am committed to delivering sustainable growth. My leadership style combines #ChangeManagement, #StakeholderAlignment, and a deep understanding of #TechnologyIntegration with a focus on #CulturalTransformation. I aim to create resilient, responsive organizations that are ready to adapt and grow #EnterpriseTransformation #DigitalAdoption #CrossFunctionalCollaboration #ProgramManagement #StakeholderEngagement #TechnologyIntegration #HealthcareTechnology #FinancialServices #OperationalEfficiency #ChangeManagement #StrategicAlignment #DigitalTransformation #ProgramLeadership
