Senior Leadership Development Consultant

Oct 2012 - Aug 2013
I served as the Program Manager of the official Mentoring Program at NASA HQ, eMerge! Initially I interviewed all pilot program participants to assess the program for its impact on the NASA civil servants. Upon completion, I drafted my recommendations, which were implemented and one primary goal was to have the program extended to 9-months from 6-months. This provided the Program to more efficiently operate within the high demand of the staff in their typical work-day. Additionally, I supported the team lead on the competitive leadership programs in ensuring that they were marketed and that briefing sessions were scheduled accordingly. Lastly, I had the pleasure to work with the leadership development guru of the office in two 5-day supervisory management courses that teaches supervisors how to manage strategically. Show less
