In very early stage of my career, I was presented with a challenging short-term assignment, which typically required 7+ years of experience. In pursuit of the assignment, I was been deployed to Port Elizabeth, S. Africa to manage the installation of machining and automation system supplied by PARI to Ford (Puma Program)- one of the big international programs in 2010, during global economy crisis. Having experience of living and working in multi-cultural environment, using past student experience of doing prudent expenses making a right decision, and being good in planning strategies; it helped me endure, thrive to manage Puma program install, and help present promotional-performance image of my organization tangibly to representatives coming from all over the globe. It was a stimulating experience to work in a multi-cultural/linguistic milieu, people under one roof interfacing & getting sustenance from different time zones, to achieve one target - helping the end user for “Successful Launch”. My career witnessed following work-portfolios in chronological sequence: internship in project engineering, health and safety coordinator, installation management, integration management (i.e. build, run-off, tear down, packaging & shipping), project management, got promoted to program manager, and have been asked to lead & manage entire North America project finance.
