“Monica was assigned to my Cummins account Power Generation Oracle Supply Chain project. We wanted to provide Cummins the most value and the best service while ensuring affordability and the highest likelihood of project success. We managed this by having Monica on the project. Monica represented Oracle and over-delivered on value each and every time. She also managed the scope and Customer expectations while being on the ground which was very helpful for a Client Executive. Monica earned follow-on work and the Customer did not want to lose her to other Customer projects. Monica has been and continues to be a rock star. Monica has already proven to have a successful career and deserves additional responsibility and challenges to continue to do bigger and better things. I would work with Monica again and look forward to hearing more about her Customer successe in international news.”

What do you do if your organization's culture lacks innovation?
As a Tech CEO, I find it refreshing when Software Engineers align their innovative ideas with our communicated business goals or company values. While innovation for its own sake may struggle to gain traction, demonstrating the benefits through leadership in hackathons, proofs of concept, research, or talks on emerging technologies truly adds value. This approach not only shows you as an integral team member but also helps cultivate a culture of curiosity and understanding of innovation’s impact by involving others in the journey. Don’t just critique from the sidelines; be proactive, offer ideas, exhibit a growth mindset, and your contributions will undoubtedly catch your leaders’ attention.

Here's how you can effectively handle client expectations and set realistic deadlines as an IT consultant.
Effective expectations in IT projects are built on trust, communication, and collaboration. Trust ensures alignment and commitment, even amid challenges. Clear communication is vital; it involves not making assumptions, asking the right questions and employing the ‘5 whys’ technique to define business objectives and set precise expectations. A strong spirit of collaboration is essential in our fast-paced, innovative environment, where adaptability is crucial for leveraging technology effectively. With over 20 years in consulting, I’ve found that most challenges stem not from the technology itself but from human interaction and alignment. As IT leaders, fostering a culture that prioritizes open communication and robust collaboration is key.
