Background

About Eileen H.

I thrive in settings where I lead cross-functional teams to design and implement effective solutions for complex challenges. I built my foundation in strategy design and program management at an international management consulting firm and have since worked internally and externally with public, private, and non-profit clients to develop and actualize plans that meet strategic goals and demonstrate impact. I have local, national, and international experience in bringing people together to create culturally responsive and actionable plans. I have an insatiable curiosity and ability to see both the big picture and the small details in any project, creating alignment to ensure success. I am adept at building strong relationships and have a reputation for quickly developing content expertise in new areas and becoming a trusted advisor to executive leaders. I am recognized as an expert in transforming systems to implement programs to address social challenges, most recently working in education to improve academic outcomes for traditionally underserved students. I have a strong analytical background, with academic training in economics and over ten years of experience in roles assessing the impact of various strategic approaches. Specialties: strategy development and implementation; operational transformation; data analytics including developing and managing surveys; public finance and budgeting, both operational and capital; RFP development and proposal evaluation; stakeholder management and engagement. Areas of expertise include strategic planning, change management, metric design and monitoring, business process design, organizational effectiveness, cross-functional system mapping, implementation planning.
