  Last fall Bill joined my project, involving moving from one vendor to another vendor.  The timeline for changing vendors was extremely short.  Bill rapidly acclimated himself to the project beginning to add value in his first few days.  Bill's deep engagement in organizing an approach, and defining critical steps, provided direction to employees challenged to chart the way in a very overwhelming environment.  his organization skills and ability to hone in on key deliverables was very impressive.

“Bill is a dedicated project manager who is meticulous during test cycles. The attention he pays to details highlights issues early enough during testing so they do not mushroom into huge production problems later. He's also innovative and keen to learn new tools to improve his productivity. Bill also prepared and conducted education on an area which he had no prior expertise but took it in his stride to produce a great piece of work.” May 27, 2009

  Bill has consistently demonstrated his leadership skills and always took the initiative to develop a plan when presented with testing challenges. He has always been instrumental in paving the way to ensure our testing was thorough, complete and that we delivered a quality product for our customers.

  Hello Bill,

I am sad for your release.  You have been a nice PTM for all the projects I have worked with you.  Surely whenever I see Preferred Rewards banner somewhere or in bank, I will remember you.

“I worked with Bill for several years on various large projects in the area of central planning for the IBM ISC Division. Bill was the test manger on all the projects and had to work with folks from around the world and different time zones Each IBM Division had there own local systems and had to feed into a central engine. He developed a complex test schedules via Lotus and was used by the world wide group for Integration Test, UAT Test and also a Operbility test which was used for ensuring the move to production for the install when in with no problems. Bill was on the east caost and I am on the west coast, and during the testing , I had a daily 6:00 am mtg with the group and discussed the testing. With over thirty folks or more on the testing Bill ran a tight ship. Over these years, I learned a lot from Bill both work and personal. If I was a manger of a company, and was interviewing Bill, I would hire him in a heart beat.” October 25, 2009

You’ve been a tremendous asset to our team and I wish you well in your journeys and I know the Lord will be with you!

Richard Brubaker - BOA
  I found you easy to work with on our project, which has gone well.  For example - deferring to expertise where appropriate, while bringing up issues where it affects our timelines.  You've done well dealing with unexpected developments, without blowing things out of proportion, or panicking.  Your informal style has encouraged people to speak up when they have issues.

“I had pleasure of working with Bill at IBM. He is an outstanding project manager. As project manager he was not only responsible to organize the team to produce the deliverables but also to manage the relationships with technical peers. He has a great communication and knows when is time to talk and when is time to listen.” November 11, 2009

You know this already but wanted to say it anyways – you have been a strong pillar for the PLT and PR programs and have been more than a testing lead for me. You’ve been a great SME, friend, and someone I can just bounce ideas off of. I will really miss working with you on this project but I hope our paths cross again soon. Definitely keep in touch.
