Intentional Management quite often observes situations that can be viewed from a different perspective and resolved to a worthy solution.  The team understands that technology presents challenges, but the process to leverage technology requires people to be ready to accept the changes.

Doug Skinner

Doug was consistent and reliable, and always kept his eye on the ball with regards to addressing his customer’s needs and provide problem resolution. He has shown fortitude and vision in growing and nurturing vendor, client, and partner relationships. He has a knack for mentoring as well with utmost integrity. He works well with people below and above his rank and strives to be a consensus builder.

He got sponsors to pledge their commitment to the project, and team members to break out of their entrenched views, so things can move forward. He finds alignment, balances the resources with the requirement priorities, and grasps the technical aspects as they relate to the business purpose. Doug can take on ambitious ventures, develop a road map, and reach targeted destinations.

He impressed me with his leadership and passion for the .net developer’s work. He has an unique ability to see and demonstrate how a project’s success was linked to a clear return on investment for the client, rooted in delivering business value. I enjoyed it, because he cleared a pathway for very difficult architecture and implementation challenges.

Doug and I worked together as sales representatives growing up in the business together. I found Doug to be very effective at finding prospects, connecting with them and engaging them in long term relationships.  His ability to meet and exceed performance standards is what got Doug promoted to lead his own team of representatives. He for sure led by example and went on to achieve many successes in his position.  Over the 20 plus years I have known him, I’ve come to respect his business acumen. Doug has been involved and exposed to many leadership roles and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him in that capacity.
