James Barnish's Problem Solving Experience:
- Second in command in an organization with a move to a member-oriented culture (rather than ownership) focusing on outcomes over output. While part of the was the shift in KPIs and overall tinkering with our teams, the largest challenge was getting the sales and delivery teams to think different.
- Built agile framework for an organization and led the execution of this framework. This was the first transformation I led, but have been a part of several.
- Developed subscription vision, storyboard, GTM plan, roadmap and pricing plan in a technology organization. This is a new solution, but it is gaining significant traction and helping to shift the mind of the ERP consumer.
- Developed an app (idea) for use in retail food chain to drastically reduce loss of goods. I was the leader on the team (as District Manager). App was adopted at regional level and then at a corporate level. Successfully brought loss down significantly.
