Providing consulting services to architectural, engineering, and environmental consulting firms to increase project manager effectiveness and engagement for better financial outcomes and client satisfaction.

 

I have had the inordinate pleasure of collaborating with Mary Loden for over 25 years on a wide variety of engineering and architectural projects. Her role typically involved project management of large complex projects where she led teams of multi-discipline professionals in achieving consistently successful technical and financial outcomes. Her management style focused on clear communication (both written and verbal) while always being fair and supportive to her staff. Over the years she mentored junior staff to take on increasingly responsible roles in the firm and was an early advocate for advanced computer technology in our firm.

As VP of Business development, I appreciate that Mary’s project management coaching and training programs emphasize the important role project managers have in bringing in new work through client relationship building, excellent client service, listening skills, and quality deliverables. I highly recommend her pragmatic approach to helping project managers move their business development skills to the next level.
