wagner.russ@gmail.com http://180icr.net http://www.linkedin.com/in/russellwagner I am an assertive and innovative professional, experienced in Information Technology project and operations management methodology and process development. As far as project management techniques, I am professionally experienced with Portfolio Project Management using the Project Management Office approach and frame working this concept within the Project Management Maturity Model, PLM and MES methodologies. My job is to save you time, save you money and save your sanity.

I have coordinated several IT projects, including such tasks as designing, planning, scheduling, proposing deliverables, resource allocation, risk assessment, change management and facilitating information flow among project team and the client. I am experienced in all cross-platform (UNIX, Linux, Macintosh, Windows, and Windows NT/2000-3/XP) computing issues. I have managed Business Process Integration using Six Sigma, CSC Catalyst, CMM, BCMM and Anderson Method 1 methodologies. In summary, I offer: Organizational Alignment and Process Standardization - creating organizational structures that emphasize communication channels and mutual accountability.
