About A. Wayman Ferguson

My career has spanned across the constantly evolving healthcare and financial services industries. My professional evolution has been just as dynamic. I\'ve been successful as both an individual contributor within Service, Sales, and Marketing as well as a manager of an Operations department that employed 22 people. My current position as a Sales Executive has been exciting, fulfilling and filled with growth. I started covering underpenetrated healthcare accounts, grew into selling to large healthcare institutions, and have recently evolved into becoming part of a team managing sales for a single, multi-national financial institution. Most recently, I\'ve been promoted to lead the team\'s Emerging Technologies Tower for the bank.I\'m proud of my career to date as it\'s been able to delve into several different departments: critical care, operating room, obstetrics, neonatal, pediatrics, radiology, and cardiology, and IT. As a sports enthusiast, I thoroughly enjoy the competitive aspects of Marketing and Sales (the thrill of closing a deal and becoming a trusted partner to a customer has had no parallel in my career to date). Nevertheless, my role within Operations Management allowed me to build and motivate 4 departments, establish deep relationships with my team, and drive them to success for the business. We improved order turnaround times, built tools and educated their users, as well as interfaced with vendors and negotiated better service support pricing. We had fun doing it too.At this stage in my career, I am interested in being a leader of an organization - whether that be a client base, product lines, or back-office departments. As an engineer, creating and building is what I love to do. Ultimately, I know I\'ll be building and shaping an organization at the executive level as my professional experience to date has been tailored accordingly.I look forward to what the next open door has to offer.Specialties: Sales, Operations Management, Policy Innovation, Strategic Planning, Cost Control, Project & Marketing Management, Productivity Improvement, Contract Review, Messaging & Branding, Market Analysis, Purchasing/Procurement, Process Improvement, Supply Chain Processes, Literature Development, Vendor Relations, Team Building, Customer Satisfaction
