Introducing the career of Dori Gilbert
Optimizing Your Project Delivery
My career is a fusion of management experience enabling me to move adeptly through project delivery issues while facilitating strategic alignment and growth/transformation. Here's how I phrase it:
Dori's versatility energizes optimal project delivery in shifting business contexts.
I have a unique blend of change management, project governance and executive communication skills to help establish, grow, and manage an adaptable project management delivery function.
I Invigorate Project Delivery & Change Resilience
A versatile background gives ease in responding to objectives and shifting business conditions
Over the span of my career, I've learned how to deliver end-to-end systems that fulfill the execution promise. I also accept that change is a normal part of doing business, and that it's best to use resources for projects that bring the most value, even if that means putting one on hold.
With project and product delivery management as a foundation, I integrate change management and user adoption along with superb communication skills - speaking, writing, and listening.
Bonus: I learn from multiple sources, even through the experience of others, and I'm an autodidactic learner. This means I ease into learning business environments.
Talents to Drive Stakeholder Satisfaction
Natural and developed talents
I align with stakeholder needs that I learn from listening to key staff, partners, executives and peers. I naturally want to continuously improve to make processes and interactions more efficient and responsive to change.
In this Zoom story I facilitated customized solutions for specific stakeholder groups like executive assistants, the marketing team, and the regional CIOs.
My Zoom story
Most of these talents were used in a project where I led adoption efforts in collaboration with an adoption project manager and a trainer. We onboarded about 30,000 people to the Zoom meeting platform in 60 days.
