Feedback: I have been working with Becci, intensively over the past 6 months. Every engagement with Becci is nothing but a pleasure. Becci is not only
pleasant with her mannerisms but she her drive far surpasses no other on the program.
When Becci has an issue, prior to raising the issues she comes to me with solution rather than problems. She works well with our diverse team. A is crisp
and concise with her communication.
Becci has also aided me tremendously with my program reporting, she honestly has set the BAR high for all planners.
Becci also understand the business, the technology and is not hesitant to meeting the customer.
Overall, Becci's performance is outstanding and I hope I maintain this excellent working relationship with her.

Feedback: Becci has provided excellent planning support for several major complex programs, and is always a pleasure to work with. Becci works in a
structured and professional manner and sets the standard for the professional planner role. Becci has also provided first hand mentoring to others to allow
them to quickly get up to speed by learning from Becci's vast practical experience. Becci is well respected within my team and is a great asset to the EPMO.

Feedback: Becci developed many templates and "how to" documents that provided the Planners a good basis on the expectations and the process that
should be maintained and followed.
Through the Planner's summit in January we were able to review all the templates and documents and provide comments and refine the
processes/templates. This allowed the new planners to gain a comfort level on what is expected of the Planners and feel confident going out and ensuring
the process is followed; especially with those who have not been exposed to it before.
I was also given the opportunity to observe a PBS and WBS be created which was something that I felt was lacking in my "toolbox". Once I raised my
concern with Becci she was able to quickly find a solution that enabled me to fill my knowledge gap.
Becci facilitates a weekly call with the Planners to ensure we are getting the support/buy-in that is needed for us to make an impact on the projects/programs
we are involved in. This also allows us a forum to raise any questions we have and to come up with a consensus on any new items moving forward.
Overall, I feel that I have received the proper training and mentorship needed to succeed in my new role as Planner.

Feedback:
I have worked with Becci on a number of projects over the past few years.
I have found her to be highly organized and very professional.
She approaches per project planning tasks with common sense and a high attention to detail.
Becci also shows initiative by proactively identifying and escalating potential scheduling conflicts.
Simply put, all of the projects I am currently engaged with would benefit by having someone like Becci assigned to them.
Thanks

Feedback: Becci very quickly became part of the PS team, she is very approachable, is happy to seek advice and has a good work ethic.
Becci got to grips with her new position and gained new skills, values and the confidence required being successful in the role.
The role was new to PS (and to Becci) so some effort was required to ensure a clear understanding of the role within PS, this was made easier by the
immediate positive impact made on 2 large high profile programs in Canada.
The quality of the work Becci produces is to a very high standard due in part to her attention to detail, diligence and understanding of 'whats important' ; plus
her willingness to challenge poor thinking and to encourage thorough and pragmatic planning practices.

Feedback: Becci has been a major help to the Program.
She is attentive to detail and has provided great support to the Program Team during the planning stages of the NGVSP engagement. Her planning skills are
excellent and the products she has produced for us are accurate, well presented and easy to understand and read.
I have very much enjoyed working with Becci and will recommend her to any Program!

Feedback: I had the pleasure of working with Rebecca throughout various stages of the 2 high profile Cisco programs. Rebecca demonstrated complete
competency in all the tools at her disposal, assisted with developing and modifying the program schedule for my team and incorporated various intricacies
from other parts of the program as it impacted my team's activities.
Rebecca was always friendly and pleasant to work with, despite the tight deadlines and pressure applied to the project.
Becci supported Charter program for initial face to face planning and follow up for DCAS project. Becci did a great job during the planning session that lasted multiple
days. She put structure in place and were able to complete PBS and WBS and create the skeleton of the project schedule. It was very challenging as there were
multiple BUs represented during the planning session and majority of them haven’t participated in planning like this before. Becci did an outstanding job explaining to
the team why we plan this way and kept everybody on track during the planning session. We couldn’t complete the planning as we didn’t have commitment dates
from the BUs, but Becci created a structure of the plan and the basis for follow on planning sessions. Great job Becci! Thanks a lot for your support and help
