Background

About Alyssa Chenault

The best communicators are integrators. People who can take seemingly disparate information and connect the dots. People who can in a single conversation build relationships and glean strategic information to help drive decision-making. My specialty is joining organizations on the brink of a breakthrough and being a change agent to lead a team into new territory, strategically with our key audience or customer at the center. I thrive in roles where I'm working with diverse stakeholders from all levels and in different industries. My diverse industry background has exposed me to the non-profit, government, and private sectors in advocacy, healthcare, smart city, and sustainability industries. Ultimately every organization needs a person who has the organizational, team-building, and communication skills to make things happen. I'm that person. Colleagues trust me to develop a course of action to meet an organizational need. They also depend on me to execute the plan. I enjoy working in teams to see a project come to fruition. I have a keen sense of knowing who needs to know what information and when to escalate issues. My unique background places people and processes at the center of everything I do. CliftonStrengths: Learner: I have a great desire to learn and want to continuously improve. The process of learning, rather than the outcome, excites me. Analytical: I search for reasons and causes. I have the ability to think about all of the factors that might affect a situation. Relator: I enjoy close relationships with others. I find deep satisfaction in working hard with friends to achieve a goal. Significance: I want to make a big impact. I am independent and prioritize projects based on how much influence they will have on the organization or people around me. Focus: I can take direction, follow through and make the corrections necessary to stay on track. I prioritize, then act.
