Background

About Christopher Long

I enjoy managing large projects that improve a product, service, or process. I like to break things down into smaller pieces and put them back together to better understand the full intent of it and how it is supposed to work/function. I strive to understand what happens before and after my involvement to find ways to improve or fix it by understanding the smaller parts of the whole. I have been able to successfully communicate project goals and timelines with all levels of an organization in meaningful ways improving organizational awareness and change management implementation. I am always looking for ways to improve efficiencies or streamline processes to increase production and quality. I enjoy technology at both work and home and tend to keep up with some of the newest tech trends. My interest in technology keeps my skillset agile and continually growing. I have a knack for helping people see how adopting technology benefits them and makes their work easier. I love seeing others succeed and strive to help people develop. For the last 20 years, I have found myself as a bridge between people and technology. I have managed hourly, salaried, full-time, part-time, and union employees. Some of the projects I managed have resulted in- Training and implementing multiple new systems or software across organizational structures- Convert quarterly customer meter reading to monthly billing with minimal impact on the customer base - Establish more efficient customer meter reading systems improving accuracy, reducing costs, and increasing revenues- Identify and implement new tools or processes improving worker safety and increasing productivity- Establishing training and development programs for employees providing opportunities for career exploration and growth I am currently on track to earn my B.B.A through Strayer University in 2022 and my JWMI MBA in early 2024.
