What I do:

Once a project is underway, control over the process is key. As the Project Champion, I am charged with shepherding all the players and keeping the various tasks on track while staying abreast of all the issues. On top of that, I am accountable for the project’s success without always having the authority over each of the other team members.

How I use Smartsheet:

Smartsheet empowers me as a project manager and has become a tool that I rely on.  It provides  simple and effective project collaboration capabilities, enabling me to get things done quickly and efficiently. Team members don't have to learn a complicated new software program and are quickly proficient in using the service. Collaboration is a breeze and corralling team members is no longer a struggle. Refreshingly easy to use, Smartsheet gives me security, flexibility and the kind of control that results in peace of mind, confidence and success.
