ABOUT CHELSEA OLSON
An accomplished project manager and methodical problem solver, I specialize in completing complex projects on time, under budget, and with significant organizational impact. A proven and trusted leader, able to manage sensitive, high-profile assignments. I am adept at advancing the strategic planning process, with the ability to drive consensus and achieve real buy-in across diverse stakeholders, and to exert influence without direct authority, while remaining cool under pressure. I maintain a strong attention to detail, but also take care to nurture a strategic and curious mind that keeps sight of the big picture. I know how to get stuff done, and have fun while doing it.I have a passion for global business. My global experiences have taken me across the globe, studying the business environments of Asia, Latin America and Europe, with in-country studies in China, Brazil, and Peru, as well as corporate engagements in multiple countries throughout Latin America, from Mexico to Argentina, and a multi-month consulting engagement in Moscow, Russia. Nearly 20 years of progressive involvement in high-growth academic business environments. Native English speaker, and proficient in Spanish. In my spare time, I am an avid endurance athlete and travel enthusiast. I believe the best gift you can give someone is a stamp in their passport.
