Organization: Keep track of multiple projects and client and team member requests, often on a last-minute basis with excellent follow-up to assure promises are kept

Documentation: Thoroughly documents, updates, and maintains process documentation, notes, and decisions across appropriate platforms to ensure workflows, processes, and discussions are accessible and up-to-date

Communication: Conduct business communications in an effective, professional, and concise manner, both verbally and in written formats, and in one-on-one, small-group, and large-group settings. You must read, write, speak, compute, and problem-solve various tasks. Break down complex concepts into smaller and more digestible components that allow for a greater level of understanding by others

Teamwork: Work as a functional member of a team and successfully work with other teams and business functions to achieve positive results. Facilitate effective project team and cross-functional interactions (Technical, Operations, BD, Marketing, etc.)

Problem Solving: Approach problems using a methodical and logical method to create a workable solution. Use numbers and mathematical approaches for various tasks. Conduct research using the Internet

Software: Use software applications effectively and efficiently (G Suite, MS Office, Bluebeam, Slack, Revit, AutoCAD MEP, Navisworks, Bluebeam Studio, etc.) to communicate and deliver work products

Process Oriented: Follow processes, continually seek to make processes more efficient, enforce processes, and conduct root cause analyses that lead to the update or creation of processes

Negotiation: Practice the Win-Win negotiation strategy to focus on TEECOM's interests. If done correctly, both parties will be satisfied with the outcome. Know your BATNA (Best Alternative To a Negotiated Agreement) before entering into a negotiation

Emotional Intelligence: Nurture, mentor, and manage staff who work in a deadline-driven environment on projects with complex needs. These conditions can lead to stress in team members. Know how and when to apply pressure and when to nurture staff members, resulting in high levels of effective communication, team member satisfaction, motivation, and project results, and leading to a highly functional and successful team

Mentorship: Mentor the technical staff and teach them the correct processes. Come prepared to maximize the effectiveness of time spent with your team, and keep timeliness in mind so that you act immediately when the situation demands it

Management: Break down complex projects into smaller tasks, plan, schedule, budget, and mitigate risk to successfully deliver work both for clients and internally for TEECOM. Delegate tasks to the most appropriate resource that allows for the efficient execution of the work while challenging staff and allowing them to grow
