About Wayne Knox
I am an outgoing, energetic and dynamic professional with over 15 years of experience as a senior manager, who is well versed in executive-level leadership and strategic planning/execution. Throughout my career, I have successfully delivered high-exposure and high-impact projects. I have expertly distilled complex financial concepts/data and effectively communicated findings to a wide range of audiences. I have a proven record of quickly identifying and implementing viable solutions to complex management issues. I operate confidently and comfortably at every level within matrix organizations. My management style is collaborative, performance-driven and customer focused. I have the agility and flexibility to adapt to fast-paced, dynamic environments, while managing large scale, complex projects and functional teams. I am an active listener with strong oral and written communication skills. I possess a keen ability to think critically, which affords me the aptitude to identify risks and implement sound solutions. I am mission-oriented. I believe in strategically leveraging the power of teamwork with resources (human, fiscal, technological) to drive operational excellence and align solutions with business objectives.
