About Paul Kessler

During my volunteer Coaching efforts I focus on Youth Safety and discovered Hit Check I believed is industry game change in Concussion Mgt - I decided to become ambassador. Join us!Community Policing Consultant (Pubic Sector), started as volunteer with local police. Then took on various projects for the past two years Neighborhood Watch and Traffic Program.Professional (Private Sector), I have worked for both high tech and defense companies to help achieve effective use of contingent workforce and outsourcing solutions. The main focus has been to hold people accountable and align with stakeholders through establishment and implementation of business metrics and expectations. I have become an industry expert at making companies more profitable through operational efficiency (BOS - Six Sigma - eliminating waste), accountability (RACI and metric setting), cost reductions (realized savings) and resource planning (balance between contingent workforce and outsourcing). Every opportunity and or solution starts with a plan driven by data through spend analytic and manage of or oversight of institution financial budget.
