EXECUTIVE CORE QUALIFICATIONS

Factor 1: Leading People

My experience in leading people has been in-depth as well as broad-based for the past 14 years I have served as a Portfolio Manager for the Department of Veterans Affairs. In this assignment I have been extremely successful in directing a wide array of personnel, with particular focus on assuring clear and concise communication of work performance and activity expectations, continually overseeing goal accomplishment and supporting individuals with insightful feedback that directs and motivates toward highest levels of performance.

One major assignment was to oversee $250M re-development project that involved having comprehensive responsibilities for managing the work performance and activities of a 32-member team and all aspects of planning, design and construction. Team members brought multiple disciplines and skill sets including engineering, architecture, development, budget analysis, real estate, contracting, consultancy and multiple legal areas.

I was specifically tasked to select a developer, identify and address concerns surfaced by various stakeholders and gain needed regulatory approvals as well as manage the construction of new buildings while renovating existing facilities. The magnitude of the size and scope of this project quickly brought it to the attention of congressional members as well as local media outlets.

To assure necessary support from multiple involved entities, I diligently communicated to all parties the project parameters and goals, any relevant special circumstances for consideration, and, crucially, individual roles, responsibilities and performance expectations. I placed particular emphasis on developing a collaborative and communicative work environment in support of developing harmonious interaction and high levels of team morale. With a hands-on approach and by being continually active in the day-to-day project activities, I was able to identify, either personally or by communication from subordinates, any problems/issues and mitigate or remediate them before they escalated.

I also was quick to acknowledge performance excellence which resulted in reinforcement of positive actions that led to exceptional results; within two months I had successfully developed a cohesive, creative and innovative team that produced an exceptional end-product while supporting individual professional growth and development.

Factor 2: Leadership Requirements Narrative (Leading Change)

In preparation for a major modification of the process used for selecting investments, as a Portfolio Manager for the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), I was tasked with planning, developing and implementing multiple needed changes, based in large measure on my reputation as a results-oriented leader. I capitalized on my experiential background to identify those projects which were ineffectual and wasted resources and developed well-defined guidelines, standards and parameters for selecting appropriate projects going forward.

Working within the VA Office of Asset Management, I managed the selection and execution of an array of real estate portfolio-enhancement projects, which typically focused on re-purposing already owned but under-utilized land and facilities. I engaged the contractual services of a real estate consultant to collaboratively identify appropriate targets while continually adhering to VA mission directives on all projects/actions of providing benefits for veterans. These projects have focused on developing supportive housing, providing affordable as well as assisted-living housing, clinic facilities and job training centers.

Prior to my involvement, the accepted procedure was to simply begin a project without performing any feasibility or project evaluation, a process that consistently wasted valuable resources on unsuccessful projects. My experience taught me that the selection process should focus on four key points: selection criteria analysis, project definition, project evaluation and project decision, as well as possibly the most important factor, that of collecting and analyzing crucial data to properly assess the feasibility of the project reaching the desired positive conclusion. By spearheading the process change action, I was successful in developing a dedicated change management team which drafted a change management plan and designed training modules for new processes/procedures to be utilized in project selection.

I ensured that senior management was apprised of the new planning processes and gave their imprimatur, followed by a series of meetings with involved parties that included specific changes to be included, rationale for the need of changes, how implementation would occur and how success would be measured; I also addressed any concerns or issues regarding these new processes and procedures. I then facilitated all needed training for involved individuals on the important steps and methodologies to be utilized and developed a series of policies and project management systems supporting the new processes while tracking change efforts and encouraging acceptance.

Based on my outstanding leadership and ability to define and remediate systemic problems and issues to increase performance, the ability to better identify projects that aligned with strategic goals, had a high probability of success and improved the use of resources led to a project selection process that was significantly improved.

Factor 3: Leadership Requirements Narrative (Business Acumen)

During my multi-year professional career in senior management assignments, I have gained invaluable experience in strategic resource management, including the methodologies and timing to be employed to maximize acquisition and use of resources; undoubtedly the most crucial resources to be managed and developed have been human resources.

During my assignment with the General Services Administration, as Branch Chief, I have been tasked with meeting multiple responsibilities involved with program budget planning, development, execution and management; major focus has included working with a $4M reduction to a $20M program while modernizing/upgrading multiple buildings including systems and material. To maximize all resources, my initial response to this assignment was to assess the value of individual upgrades, prioritize and determine funding availability, which included collaborating with the program support team to review program goals/objectives, and identifying various crucial requirements, i.e. current and future needs, implications of proposed program cuts. These assessment actions supported appropriate decision-making that resulted in cost reductions yet minimal negative program impact.

With the VA, as Portfolio Manager, I was continually tasked with multiple responsibilities related to identifying/expending resources to exploit opportunities for enhancing real estate asset valuation, including collecting/analyzing data on market forces, socio-economic involvement and financial factors.

In an earlier assignment as President and Project Executive with Haggar Construction Management Services, my responsibilities focused on developing strategic planning for business start-ups and operations, where I aligned appropriate resources with organizational goals/needs, determined staffing requirements and identified initial expenditures for technology and marketing activities. I continually consulted with business advisors, reviewed financial resources, markets, business trending and five-year business objectives. By analyzing crucial business drivers, I developed planning for resource acquisition and management that achieved appropriate levels of human capital as well as technology resources while supporting a competitive position and allowing for a stable business start-up. As noted, my experience gained in both the private sector as well as with the federal government has allowed me to become exceptionally proficient in strategically identifying and optimizing the use of limited resources including strategically managing and developing human as well as financial resources.

Factor 3: Leadership Requirements Narrative (Business Coalitions)

During the past 14 years my various management roles and assignments have carried with them the requirement to build and maintain good working relationships with a wide array in individuals including supervisors, peers, subordinate staff members, service line staff personnel, senior executives, external agency officials, business leaders, local government officials and customers.

While serving as Portfolio Manager for the VA, I oversaw a $250M re-development project with significant impact on the organization, veterans, real estate developers, the local environment, members of the local community as well as the State of Maryland, various historical and cultural societies, and local businesses, and the stakeholders with these organizations. Stakeholders included senior leadership of the VA, members of Congress, business leaders, local government and regulatory agency officials, Indian tribe leaders and other leaders from the community and veterans groups, with often disparate points of view and project expectations which, if not managed properly could have led to limited cooperation and support.

I was successful in employing my exemplary capabilities in developing strong, interpersonal working relationships with the various stakeholders that resulted in establishing open communication, trust, cooperation and a drive toward achieving common objectives. By purposefully developing an understanding of the various stakeholder concerns/interests, I brought a level of awareness of expectations to the process, which reinforced our communication efforts and built effective relationships.

Included in that communication activity was the continual sharing of information with stakeholders including project updates, briefing internal senior leadership on crucial issues, and inclusion of stakeholders in monthly project meetings, which surfaced various issues/problems and included the stakeholders in the resolution process. By establishing strong rapport I gained support for the project and the continual involvement by stakeholders in the process allowed for more rapid decision-making on major issues including facilitating any needed compromises.
