I enjoy working with teams to achieve project success in the rail transit industry. Being accountable for team performance and project results are similar to starting, establishing, building, maintaining and transitioning ownership on a business, which can be likened to a project, program, or portfolio. Business management skill sets apply across the entire project lifecycle - planning, initiating, executing, monitoring and managing, and commissioning and closing. It also involves vision, foresight, leadership, and added value contributions in the construction business domain including management knowledge areas for integration, finance, procurement, human resources, risk management, safety, quality, and environmental. Everyday has the opportunity for achieving success, avoiding risk threats, solving problems, transferring knowledge, applying common sense to processes and decisions, and building and enhancing relationships with the team members.

I love working with others to make things happen. I love building a team and the environment in which positive change can happen. To see someone's dream come true at the completion of a project is great. The sense of accomplishment that the team has when the project is complete is palpable. I get to use my strengths - curiosity, bravery, leadership, gratitude, appreciation of beauty and excellence, and fairness to the full!

I love project management because it is not given it is earned. You have to go through the trenches in this profession almost like a baptism by fire. You learn to appreciate all of the little tools and templates that make you in awe of the work you perform. You learn to love the people whom carry out the tasks and the budget that never seems to be enough to satisfy endless possibilities. You develop skills that sets you apart from your peers you learn that beauty in this profession is skin deep. I love that I make this profession look easy and it inspires those around me to join in on the fun realizing that I have earned this S displayed on my chest.

I love Project Management as this gives me the opportunity to wear various hats at the same time and keep juggling the caps as per need and the scenarios - Lead a team, interact with various stakeholders, take evaluated decisions, Anticipate Risks and take preventive actions, Be a link between the team and the management team. Project Management never has a dull moment, it keeps me on toes, day to day affairs, decisions and overall the human interaction factor. Learnings from Project management can be applied to real life too!!!
