Position: Project Manager
Category: Project Manager
Experience: 7 years | English: fluent

1. I made improvements in project management practices which increased clients satisfaction (Net Promotion Score) from 35% to 96%

2. Updated practices in work with requirements and acceptance criteria, scope prioritization, deliverables demo, project budgeting with Earned Value metrics gave the results:
- the % of one-time projects reduced from 88% to 16% (clients continued develop their project after the MVP phase or the 1st release)
- sprint acceptance time by client became regulated and reduced from approx. 3 weeks to 5 days
- changes in schedule management and project budgeting removed downtimes and saved company (employer) from $1000 to $7000 of unnecessary wastes per sprint

3. I was asked by C-level to make a "last-chance" negotiation with a client on his a debt of over $100K so my employer could have it back, or at least some piece. It took me  4 months, 2-hours calls 2-3 times per week, but it was worth it.
Result: 
- the debt is paid with a penalty of 10%
- client started a new phase of project with x1.5 rates and budget of $480K for the next 8 months
- new contract terms with strict schedule of prepayments, acceptance time, communication schedule etc
- changes in project management, communication, reporting,  etc. made the project last in active development for over 3 years with its further maintenance

  Why we should talk:

- You will get a business and product oriented PM.  I build trustful longterm relationships with each client;
- You will extend your team with a strong negotiator. No scope creep or gold plating on your projects; I know how to avoid downtimes and get timely responses, and approvals from clients;
- You will save much time and money on my onboarding: I'm motivated, super quick learner, I faced lots of industries and different types of businesses - from an early-idea startup to established business, SME and huge enterprises (including Fortune 500) and know the difference in their needs and preferred processes in collaboration;
