Most effective vendor/client relationship:– operated with transparency– highly self-aware of their strengths, and declined requests that
fell outside their proven competencies– responsive and accountable– directly monitored their employees’ performance such that they
found the weak and strong players before I did– highly effective onsite project manager who partnered well with
my managers and embraced my company’s culture– provided thought leadership on specific project phases,
including test planning, estimation and execution– bring their breadth and depth of overall project experience to
bear
