Work Background
Owner
Power Performance Consulting LLCOwner
Feb. 2022Buffalo, New York, United StatesLeading Power Performance Consulting as CEO and Principal Trainer has been an exhilarating journey. During this time, I have trained over half of the classes involved in two significant Agile implementation projects. This experience not only honed my skills but also allowed me to witness firsthand how effective training can transform an organization. Maintaining a perfect training completion rate was no small feat; achieving this while ensuring that more than 90% of sessions were delivered on or ahead of schedule is something I take great pride in. In addition to delivering impactful training sessions, I designed over 40 system implementation curriculums that have significantly improved employee engagement and knowledge retention. Updating our learning management system with Camtasia for more than a thousand employees ensured everyone had access to top-notch resources at their fingertips. Developing lesson plans and instructional materials has been rewarding as well; these efforts have led to clearer assessments and better outcomes for our trainees. Skills: Leadership Development, Curriculum Design, Learning Management Systems (LMS)
