Bio
Patrick Pownell
Ed adds immense value to every project, program or organization, with whom he is associated. Quickly identifying and surmounting challenges in his path, often before recognized by others, Ed’s visionary leadership and business acumen are unrivaled. When another team’s development efforts on a predecessor task to his team’s deliverable threatened to hamper Ed’s development timeline, he sought out opportunities for collaboration, bolstering both teams' development efforts. This resulted in superior quality work products for the overall program and prevented schedule creep. His passion for Instructional Design and Training Curricula is evidenced by delivery of products and services exceeding the expectations of all involved stakeholders. Whether it is organically created training materials for a client or an enterprise wide professional development platform, anyone with the pleasure of working with Ed will derive immediate benefits. His Program Management and Leadership abilities only amplify his Instructional Design background. Ed’s leadership style promotes collaboration and cohesiveness amongst those in his charge, seeking every available enhancement to mission effectiveness and efficiencies thereof.

Having worked with Ed at various points in our careers over the past 10 years, I can unequivocally state that he would be an immediate asset who will make an immensely positive impact on any organization he chooses to align himself with. Most recently I worked with Ed while he was the Instructional System Design manager for a Joint Functional School assigned to The Joint Chiefs of Staff. The vision, passion, and rigor he exuberates for providing greater efficiency and effectiveness for adult learners who desire to acquire knowledge or skills is unparalleled to anyone I have observed. Utilizing distributing learning technologies and learner autonomy techniques, Ed improved over 340 hours of academic content and assisted instructors with various instructional methodologies. His efforts directly affected the increase of operational and conceptual knowledge for students who returned to Combatant Commands across the globe.
