| Description: As an independent consultant for over twenty years, I have worked with the public and private sectors alike in their desire to make their organizations and the issues/ products/ services they represent more meaningful and more productive, by using common-sense, people-motivated strategies. Educated in the fine art of Community Economic Development, my community organizing skills are duplicable in creating better work environments; developing management, board and marketing strategies; organizing advocacy coalitions and strengthening the human resource potential of businesses and organizations. Smart Production and Smart Growth start with recognizing the greatest asset of all: people. Knowledgeable in management, administration, public policy, public relations and communications, I have the ability to reach into my past experiences to assist others in identifying and relating to similar issues and circumstances. My hands-on approach to problem solving, team building, and developing and implementing strategies is engaging and doable – no gimmick or fad techniques. |
