Project Reviews

Thorough project reviews seek to identify strengths to leverage as well as areas of improvement. Actionable recommendations are provided to drive team and project success. By conducting reviews at critical times during the project lifecycle, we can identify potential risks, inefficiencies, and areas for improvement, enabling project owners and teams to make data-driven decisions that lead to more successful project outcomes.

Project Governance

We provide guidance on best practices for project governance to ensure that your projects are delivered on time, on budget, and to the desired quality. By implementing sound project governance, project owners and teams can achieve better control over their projects, making it more likely they will be delivered on time, on budget, and to the desired quality. Areas of focus in governance include project sponsorship, project advisory or steering committees, Board & C-suite interfaces, and risk management. Project governance services also may take the form of ongoing Project Steering Committee or Board membership.

Team Capability and Culture

We help organizations create a culture of high performance by developing the capabilities of individuals and teams and aligning them with the organization's goals and values. By fostering a culture of high performance, project owners and teams can work more effectively, efficiently and collaboratively, which leads to better project outcomes.

High Performance Team Development

I work with your teams — and key individuals — to develop the skills and knowledge needed to deliver projects effectively, efficiently, safely, and to high quality. This work focuses on enhancing communication, collaboration, problem-solving, and leadership skills, which are essential for successful project delivery. By building high-performing teams, project teams can work more successfully together.
