Tamsen was worked at a bunch of companies for a number of years - but that's a BLAH speaker profile.
More importantly, she has fun doing it. With a background in architecture, followed by video games and then Pixar. She's always been around strong creative, storytelling based environments where thinking outside the box was nurtured.She's passionate about continuous improvement, and how to facilitate that curiosity in others. She specializes in crafting learning and development programs that maximize retention and engagement in the participants.
And now, for the alphabet soup:-CSP, ICA ACC, ICA ATF, ICA ICP, SCPM, PMI-ACP, CSM, SPC, TBR - CT (Certified Trainer "Training from the BACK of the Room!" by Sharon Bowman), She's an Integral Agile Wizard and lastly a PMP B.Arch... who loves a well placed ellipsis.
