Under the mentorship of Patty Azzarello, an executive, best-selling author, speaker, and CEO/business advisor. She became the youngest general manager at HP at the age of 33, ran a billion-dollar software business at 35, and became a CEO for the first time at 38 (all without turning into a self-centered, miserable jerk).
This group is for people with a desire to make a breakthrough in their work and life, and to get there with less wasted energy and less stress.
Information Technology Skill Standards, 2020 and Beyond
Volunteer, Subject Matter Expert
Supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under Grant No. 1700530, I worked with Collin College to support the national project “Information Technology Skill Standards, 2020 and Beyond.” This four-year grant will address the critical need for IT workers and provide up-to-date, easy-to-use, employer-led, future-facing skills standards. The initiative will facilitate curriculum development for two-year and four-year programs that offer applied information technology degrees as well as benefit smaller employers for use in identifying talent.
I participated as a subject matter expert in the Technical Project and Program Management cluster to help define the knowledge, skills, abilities, tasks and performance criteria that employers expect from workforce job candidates.
