“Sara’s strengths lie in:
- Her ability to get things done and to drive projects.
- Resource Management (personnel and physical)
- Budget management/responsibility
- Sound workload management skills (internal and external)
- Good coaching skills
- Policy and procedure – creation and implementation
- Systematic approach
- Thorough preparation
- Attention to detail
- Her ability to work autonomously if required
- Her professionalism
- IT
The major successes of Sara’s latter years with College Sport revolved around her management of our annual awards (600 pax), implementation of the use of Microsoft Outlook for workload management, shared time management and general communication, and the creation and evolution of an Operations Manual capable of future proofing our organisation procedurally.
Although she concentrated on wider issues, Sara never lost the ability to effectively perform micro tasks from the creation of a spreadsheet with appropriate formulae to documents, forms and processing of general data. She is quite adept at shifting between the two modes of operation.
Sara’s strengths took our organisation to the next level in terms of effectiveness and performance. I know she is keen to help other organisations and companies by sharing these strengths and acknowledge that she has the skills and attributes to achieve this. I wish her every success in the future.”
