I am an independent freelance consultant, specializing in large scale implementations and complex projects. I also have engaged in a management consulting capacity, specifically in the area of agile transformation and hybrid agile delivery design. In 2019 I created my own company, B Squared, with the goal to be able to truly support the needs of the customer without any hidden consulting firm agenda. Having been employed in the past by typical consulting companies, I know how they think. I know that they can bring great value to their clients. I also know how to ferret out their weaknesses. Beyond simply being a "knowledge worker", I believe I fit into the category of "experience worker". In other words, I provide perspective, insight, and leadership that a typical hourly contractor resource may lack. I can foresee risks way before they become a problem and will help position you for success. By bringing me in to your team, you get a senior consulting mindset at half a typical consulting rate! Do you want it done right? If so, let me help you: - Project Management, Program Management, Agile Team Management - Temp Executive, Agile Coach, Strategic Advisor, Steering Committee, PMO Recent clients: Caliber Collision, Protech Automotive, Texas Capital Bank, Mountain West Farm Bureau, American Greetings Corporation I have been certified with the following relevant credentials: - Project Management Professional (PMP) - 2008 - SAFe Agilist (SA) - 2015 - Prosci Certified Change Practitioner (PSCP) - 2023 I specialize in large scale implementations, migrations, and complex projects. The bigger and scarier, the better! I work well positioned between the sponsor and an external consulting/delivery team. Let's do this together!
