Personal profile

About

A strategic operations and improvement leader with a proven record of delivering breakthrough improvement at all levels of the organization. Proficient on enterprise quality systems (Shingo Operating System Design), facilitation and data analysis, including strategy deployment (Hoshin Kanri), process improvement methodologies (Lean and Six Sigma); and, coaching and mentoring.

My approach is one grounded in coaching to allow students explore by themselves in order to learn. I focus on understanding the student’s current level of knowledge in order to formulate questions and provide information to assist in their development.
