• In reviewing Harrison performance, there was no clear corporate strategy as to which market should we compete and focus on, services diversifications, market segmentation and positioning, there are frequent changes in direction, the mandate is unclear, Initiative is missing duplication of work was discovered resulting in low client satisfaction, loss of productivity, and there is no corporate identity. I took a proactive approach leading and forming a restructuring task force, developed a new strategy focusing on expanding in the lucrative Markets, increase and diversify the service offering to include program/ Project management, infrastructure, water &wastewater, and rails. Conducted a complete brand Audit, that includes analyzing the content, client satisfaction survey, and determined brand value, that resulted in creating a totally new corporate image.
