Biography

I have more than 20 years of management leadership experience including more than 18 years in Project and Program Management. I have proven project delivery success in the information technology service providing environment. I have lead direct-report teams in excess of 60 management and non-management resources, and project teams involving contractors, vendors, executives, and external consultant team members. I was involved in the design, the development and the implementation of the PMO within the Diebold Nixdorf GIO organization and I am still working in the PMO as a responsible and a supporter to the project management organization and its participants like internal and also external customers, project managers, and team members.

One central objective and motivation for me is to implement and deploy the PMI project philosophy and a PMI-based project management methodology in our organization adapted and adjusted to the organizational needs. Knowledge and Expertise My primary focus for the last 13 years has been in Project-, Program Management, and PMO. The skills developed as a Project Manager and Project Management Office leader in the IT service providing business leads to a passion for PMI’s project management philosophy. I earned my PMP in August 2015 and I am an enthusiasm PMP and PMI promoter. Therefore I am not only an administrator of the biggest and most active PMP related LinkedIn group (“I want to be a PMP”) but also have founded my own website under http://www.projectmanagement.plus.

I have created and started our own PMP preparation guidance program under the name “Let me be your PMP guide” and we have already supported more than 3000 students and the number is continuously growing.
