Have you ever tried to teach a four-year-old to do something complicated? Chris has. On snowy winter days, Chris can be found up on Mt Hood serving as ski instructor to his young family. Helping someone to do something new means being able to break down the process into digestible pieces and then coming up with the language to communicate next steps and actions into something that can be understood. Sound like project management? Indeed. Chris has a knack for it – and if he can do it for a four-year old – we have every confidence he can do it for any Fortune 500 company on the planet. And, in fact, he has. Chris has led projects for AT&T, Microsoft, Qwest, Compaq (now HP), as well as a host of smaller (but still quite big) companies. His experience is deepest in high tech and financial services – but within those verticals he’s worked on everything from merger integrations to sales and marketing initiatives, to CRM, and business process redesign. Going back farther, Chris is a University of Portland (Dean’s List) and U of O Lundquist B-School grad – where he was awarded a two-year fellowship and won the Outstanding Graduate Student Award. Chris worked at Accenture and, more recently for the Seattle-based firm Point B Consulting. He lives in Portland with his wife and 2 children Alexandra (the skier) and her younger brother, Tucker. When he’s not skiing with Alexandra, reading to Tucker or tacking complex business problems, he can be found on many fall Saturdays in a University of Oregon ball cap hollering like all heck from the stands of Autzen Stadium. |
