ABOUT DAYANA LAURINDO

As a senior executive assistant and C-suite office manager, I am a problem-solver acting as an extension and ambassador of executive teams to promote high productivity and smooth workflow. In fast-driven environments, I anticipate needs, find blind spots, and collaborate with all levels to maximize success. During my career, I have had fantastic opportunities to collaborate with diverse teams strategically and proactively to keep executives in the flow and create an atmosphere of cooperation and positivism.Working in various industries such as Telecom, Agribusiness, Innovation, and, most recently, Education, I have developed cultural and emotional intelligence to manage the challenges of achieving high-performance in project-based organizations. Acting as a bridge between upper management and production teams, I established complex project planning, budgeting, and scheduling activities, communicating effectively with players from different backgrounds and perspectives.I am a key asset during change processes. I collaborated on a $20 million budget funding network initiative that sponsored thirteen projects managing communications between internal and external stakeholders that included handling timelines, building and presenting project status reports, and organizing project events. I also supported project teams during the implementation of new Project Management Software, managing communications between several layers of stakeholders to ensure the best practices of change management were applied. Most recently, I coordinated the development of yearly departmental goals identifying needs, selecting SMART goals, and overseeing the implementation of new initiatives.Applying my skills and experience to improve effectiveness in the workplace is a great passion. My team-oriented approach has helped executives to identify and implement changes efficiently and successfully. My career goal is to continue acting as an agent of positive change.
