About Laura Musgrove

I improve profitability and productivity via strategic business planning, process improvement, project management, change management, and system design and implementation. With a Six Sigma Greenbelt and experience with its methodologies, I expedite continuous improvement initiatives and integrate global systems across the company. My expertise also includes expediting ERP implementations and upgrades and designing data conversions, system functionality, and key management reports. INNOVATOREarly in my career, my mentor introduced me to technology and process improvement. Today, I still use what she taught me when building business cases, creating new programs, implementing programs from pilot to super users to end users, and evaluating and reporting progress on results. CROSS-FUNCTIONAL LEADERTo maximize company results, I plan operations strategies, eliminate obstacles, and lead teams across functions to success. People find me approachable and catch my infectious enthusiasm. CHANGE AGENTThe way change is managed makes or breaks project success. To overcome resistance and optimize results, I hold meetings with key stakeholders where we discuss the change, its uses and benefits, and the supports people need for effective implementation.LET’S CONNECT l••••••••@gmail.com http://careerwebfolio.com/lauramusgrove/CORE COMPETENCIES Continuous Improvement Strategic Planning Organizational Data Management Innovative Solutions Team Leadership Supply Chain Strategy Policy Development Maintenance Strategy
