商业智能软件开发

领导设计, 构建, 发展, 测试, and implementation of a 商业智能 solution enabling data-driven decision-making across multiple functional areas in the organization.

I rolled out agile product 发展 best practices to help shift the program towards being more user- and product-centric. I also advised the executive team on how to design, 结构, 计划, 实现敏捷转型.
The program teams were poorly organized and did not communicate across despite the need to collaborates on key features. Resources were consistently asked to develop multiple features at the same time, creating a large amount of work in progress (WIP) and not being able to move features across the finish line. I highlighted previously unseen risks and issues and helped the program team avoid and/or mitigate the consequences.
项目结果:
