I have known them for a few years now and they have been integral part in my growth and a great help while implementing the SIPM beta site.
I take great honor to introduce you to my Advisors -Elizabeth and Samad.
Elizabeth Harrin- She introduced me to Project Management and meeting her in London was picture perfect. She is what I had imagined her to be – busy, bright and very down to earth.
She is currently, the Head of IT Programme Delivery for Spire Healthcare- a career project and programme manager with a decade of experience in healthcare and financial services, including two spent working in Paris, France. She is also the author of Social Media for Project Managers and Project Management in the Real World and a founding member of PMI’s New Media Council.
She is also the Director of The Otobos Group, which provides writing services to businesses. Her Blog- A Girl’s Guide to Project Management won the Project Management category of the Computer Weekly IT Blog Awards in 2008, 2009 and 2010. In 2010 she was also named Computer Weekly’s Blogger of the Year.
Samad Aidane- He is the best thing that could have happened to me professionally. I met him over twitter- thanks to the very evolving social media! He has been there to talk over ideas, my career or how to prepare for the upcoming challenges.
His blog - Guerrilla Project Management is a storehouse of great ideas and amazing podcasts with industrial experts.
He is a Certified Project Management Professional (PMP) with over 15 years of IT experience which spans in Telecom, Finance, Health Care and Government on projects in U.S, Germany, Austria, and Belgium.
