Bio
Phillip Dicken, PMP, ITIL 4 Managing Professional
I had the pleasure of working with Hal at Unisys. He stepped into a very difficult role and managed to win over our client. His efforts helped to provide direction and build trust where it was needed. However, he also knew when to let his team produce what the client asked for. This is the difference between leadership and management. Hal is definitely a leader.
