Ensuring that core technologies are leveraged to their fullest potential and are operating without fail is the main component of my responsibilities requiring me to engage and mobilize the support of the entire IT organization. The other critical role I play in both these organizations is partnering to define robust technology strategies and capabilities that are required today and, in the future, to digitize and enable each of these functions’ strategic objectives. Additionally, I have established the Intelligent Automation CoE building it from scratch to eliminate manual work and elevate our employees to do more strategic and inspiring work. Over the last two years, we have now deployed more than 80 Bots with a pipeline of another 100+ which has already delivered 150K hour productivity and we are on track to deliver a total of 400K in the next year.

Procter & GambleProduct / Service Manager - Video Collaboration
Mar. 2011 - Nov. 2013Cincinnati, OhioI was appointed to turn around one of the company’s most important IT shared services (videoconferencing). The group had struggled to keep up with growth and, while travel savings had been made, there were opportunities to do much more. In this role, I led a team of 250 service professionals delivering global call center support, engineering and technical support, onsite facilitation, and service operations. I was accountable for 350 units across 100+ sites servicing more than 80,000 employees.

During my tenure, we grew the service from 82 units to 350 while radically transforming the delivery model and dramatically improving all key metrics. We also cut the corporate travel budget by 25% (well over $100M) by driving the use of high-fidelity videoconferencing throughout the organization. In addition, I negotiated a multi-year +40M dollar contract, delivering $5M in incremental services at no additional cost to P&G.

Procter & GambleInnovation Manager
Jul. 2008 - Mar. 2011Cincinnati, OhioIn 2008, I was given the exciting opportunity to redesign and rebuild the company’s IT innovation center.

After conducting extensive industry benchmarking, my team and I transformed the existing center into an exciting and creative 3,000 sq. ft. space with a clear value proposition. The re-envisioned center includes 10 “world-of-the-consumer” rooms, a state-of-the-art usability lab, and an immersive executive experience, and has become a key driver of innovation for other areas of the business. Key contributions were a) devising an innovative co-investment model that attracted funding from partners such as Sprint, Verizon, AT&T, Microsoft, HP, and Accenture, thus saving hundreds of thousands of dollars, and b) developing an entirely new, customer-centered innovation methodology that identified breakthrough opportunities for IT to add tangible business value.
