Department Management

Multimedia and Graphics Department Manager

Description: From 2002 to 2010 I worked as a multimedia developer, division supervisor, and from 2005 to 2010, as multimedia and graphics department manager at a national software company. Over the years there, I worked on a wide variety of projects in roles from photographer and graphic & web designer to project manager. I even designed and equipped the purpose-built office space and studio for the multimedia and graphics department.

Role: Prior to 2005, I supervised 2 separate divisions, the Multimedia and the product UI Design Divisions. I recruited, trained and supervised Multimedia and Design staff. Evaluated staff member performance and recommended increases, bonuses, disciplinary, termination actions as appropriate. Tracked all multimedia and design projects and produced a weekly report to management team and bi-weekly report to upper management, as well as managing the projects of both divisions. I also wrote first drafts of staff evaluations, recommended increases, and provisioned the divisions.   

As manager I was directly responsible for the operations of the multimedia and graphics department. This included working with the property management design team to construct new offices and studio for the new department. As before I supervised staff, recruited new staff, continued a vigorous training regime and remained lead designer and developer.  I also acted as project manager for all department productions coordinating with stakeholders, talent, vendors and management team. I hired and directed contractors, managed equipment, selected vendors, oversaw procurement and managed department budgets.

Technologies: SharePoint, Word, Excel, Project, PowerPoint, Outlook, Entourage, RightNow CX CP, Lithium Idealab, EPMlive WorkEngine, and Mercury/HP ITG (now HP PPMC) Flash, Photoshop, and Illustrator. Personnel skills: leadership, strategic vision and tactical planning, mentor, trainer, creativity, positivity, empathy, determination, sys admin, problem solving, logic, bias towards action, project management, customer advocacy, critical review and cost value & ROI analysis. 

Return on Investment: By consolidating creative resources made many tasks such as web site and product design much more efficient. Web designers and developers were able to work more closely and cross train to support one another and improve product development procedures. Integrated Product design allowed the company to rapidly adopt multiple software development methodologies such as CMMI, ITG, Agile, Waterfall, and Agile SCRUM. I must say it was my privilege and very rewarding to assemble, mentor and work with this talented, creative, and productive group for over 8 years!

Support Center - RIGHTNOW Customer Relationship Management Portal

Content Large Image Description: I developed Rapattoni Support Center web portal based on the RightNow CX Customer Portal. Every customer was supported as a unique organization. Each customer had two user roles with separate features & access privileges. To do this I streamlined the page flow to remove unnecessary elements.  Then I added a dynamic page, accessible by only one user role, to display one of several custom reports selected using a pull-down menu. The page featured searching and pagination controls for each report. The menu also accessed a third party forum created in Lithium IdeaLab. In addition I customized the incident submission flow.
