Introduction:
I made or contributed to decisions that led to new clients coming on board, to retaining existing clients or to increasing margins.
Demonstrated how I affected sound cost cutting measures, optimized services received for the same/less money, or improved resource utilization.
I communicated where I had the foresight to share insight that resulted in prime product/company positioning or avoided problems – anytime risk could be averted while balancing opportunity capitalization.
Have reduced my teams absence from duties from 27 days to 19 days on average per annum. I have automated processes that enabled clients to sign 6 weeks faster. If have made my prior organizations leaner and more effective simultaneously.
I contribute to corporate culture with an innate skill, by spearheading safety initiatives, promote-from-within programs and inter-corporate mentoring circles.
People want to work for me and I have had co-workers wanting to be in committees that I have led. I have been brought in to close many deals since people tend to follow what I say. I regard myself as likable, easy to work with and people want to follow me.
