| As
an off-shoot of my technical writing career, I am often hired
to perform other consulting duties for my clients. My deliverables are generally detailed documents (reports, spreadsheets, or proposals) that will assist a business manager or team in promoting the efficacy and quality of their operations, either on a per-project basis or for the benefit of an organization overall. |

|
| My business writing and consulting tasks
include the following: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Requirements gathering for internal or external projects |
|
|
Business
analysis, including cost/benefit analysis and reporting |
|
|
Process
engineering |
|
|
Process
mapping and detailed integration analysis |
|
|
Staffing proposals and team structure change proposals |
|
|
Efficiency gains proposals |
|
|
Project
management support |
|
|
|
|
| What
makes me a successful contributor in these duties are the same
skills that make me a successful writer: timeliness, diplomacy,
an ability to manage project constraints, ongoing risk mitigation,
and effective written communication. |
