About Ken McFetridge

Do what you must, so you can do what you want”- Matt Solorio. I am a versatile and goal-oriented Project Manager and Turn-Around Specialist with a history of success improving the efficiency of troubled Global Enterprise Business Operations through the development, implementation, and execution of strategically conceived projects in close collaboration with senior management and C-level executives. I am highly adept at driving progress and exceeding project goals and expectations while developing strong trust relationships with stakeholders. I am skilled in managing relationships, contract negotiation, profit margin improvement, customer relations, translating insights into strategic response needs, and leading innovation and growth to drive revenue and profit expansion. I can forge solid relationships with partners and build consensus across multiple organizational levels focused on achieving operational excellence. I possess an excellent track record of directing continuous process improvements across multiple departments while consistently managing and delivering profitable growth. I am a capable team leader with active coaching, mentoring, and training skills and possess the multi-task capacity to work independently and in a team and the flexibility to meet shifting goals in tight deadlines. I have excellent Customer Relationship Management experience, and I am an out of the box thinker who can develop innovative ideas for solving everyday problems more efficiently. I have outstanding verbal and written communication skills with excellent interpersonal and organizational skills to communicate and operate in a fast-paced and challenging environment with multiple departments and the public with a vision to drive the department.
