Bio
Arnab Das, MPA, SHRM-SCP, BOC-1, CSSBB
Sarah always found a way to get complex tasks done despite huge amounts of political pressure and organizational dysfunction. What was wonderful about her is that she was able to do that with limited resources and a smile on her face. A fierce warrior who would be an asset to any team!
Joyce M Rivers-Clark
Sarah Bannister is extremely organized and produces high quality results in all areas of her professional life. Sarah has social service experience in the public and nonprofit sectors. She has gained increasingly important leadership roles over the course of her career and is poised in strategic leadership in public service. Sarah is an outstanding professional Project Manager who delivers far above expectations, great team player and peers have expressed interest in working with her. Many colleagues will call Sarah for advice on how to solve tough problems. Sarah exhibits strong interpersonal skills and a unique capacity for compassion. These qualities most notably translated in her ability to motivate her team to care about its project and be invested in the project’s success. Sarah’s positive attitude and respect to others allow customers to feel like their issue is a number one priority, although other projects are going on and those projects receive the same level of dedication to their needs simultaneously. Sarah faces difficult leadership challenges; regardless of their organizational level of responsibility with ease and tenacity. Sarah is a proactive and tireless contributor who would make a great addition to any team. Sarah completes her assignments on time and never fails to add a creative touch when appropriate. I would highly recommend her for any position, as she naturally rises to the occasion.
