Yvonne T. Ryan
Founder, President & Coach
|
Yvonne Ryan spent over 25 years developing her understanding of what
constitutes good leadership (and how best to apply it in a technical
environment) while working in a variety of positions from engineering
team leader to Director of Engineering and acting Vice-President of Engineering,
with stints along the way as Program Manager, Project Manager, and consultant.
In short, she knows and understands the in-and-outs of middle management
(and has the battle scars to prove it).
Yvonne's experience spans
a wide range of industries, including EDA, manufacturing, aerospace,
biotechnology, computer language and translator design, and
business systems. She is also a trained mediator, a certified Instructor-of-Trainers,
and an instructional designer specializing in experiential and online learning.
Yvonne's
experiences as a manager, mentor, and educator, and her
ability to aid the recovery of companies and projects in crisis
eventually led her to transition into a full-time career
in coaching, facilitation, and education. (We knew you'd be
wondering what would lead an engineer into this line of work —
so now you know!) Yvonne's success in getting positive results with both
technical and non-technical leaders has demonstrated the validity of
her practical, no-nonsense approach.
Notable firms that have employed Yvonne's expertise in leadership,
management, and communication have included
Management Task Force, Inc., Department of Transportation - UMTA
(Washington, DC), Columbine Systems, Martin Marietta Data Systems,
Northrop Aircraft Corporation, Anaconda, SPR, Inc., Fairchild Advanced
Processor Division, Valisys Corporation, Becton Dickinson Immunocytometry
Systems, Vantage Analysis Systems, Viewlogic Systems, Inc., LSI Logic,
Cadence Design Systems, Synopsys, Escalade Corporation, and Vega Vista.
