RECOMMENDATIONS FROM LINKEDIN PROFILE:

“I have worked with Todd over the last few years (2008 to 2010) in supporting his organization. Todd was the Application Leader I interfaced with on a weekly basis to address issues / concerns and any required changes that may affect his organization. Todd has shown to have very strong leadership skills with the way he conducts his meetings and is well organized in his delivery of communications. Todd also controls all changes that flow in and out his organization and is tracked on a weekly basis for reference. It has been a pleasure to work with Todd and would see him as an enhancement to any team. Phil…”

“I had the pleasure of working with Todd on the implementation of an XML-based content management system. For this project, Todd was the architect and analyst leading the development and delivery of the system and I was a client representing the needs of the users of that system. This was a highly complex project, which required massive change to existing process, tools and mindset. This project enabled Todd to display his superior technical competencies, business savvy and his unbelievable ability to remain calm and respectful when under extreme pressure and dealing with unfavourable circumstances. Todd has a great ability to explain complex problems and help people understand the issues. He is a true professional. I would not hesitate for an instant if presented an opportunity to work with Todd again.”

Darrell Black , Project Manager , Nortel

 

“I recommend Todd as an Architect for XML Technical Documentation or Training large projects. He is an expert that has implemented a XML authoring system for Nortel that spanned 1 million pages. This is something that a lot of companies dream of but he actually pulled it off.”

Steve Moss , Director Technical Doc and Training , Nortel

 

“Todd is an effective project leader with an indepth knowledge of XML applications and documentation strategies. His leadership motivated the core documentation tools team to deliver critical deliverables often under tight timelines. He leveraged his expertise to deliver innovative solutions and improvements to documentation processes. An extremely hard worker with a great work ethic.”

Joe Mader , Senior Manager , Nortel

 

“I'm sure a lot of folks will praise Todd for his management capabilities and technical prowess, but what struck me about working with Todd was his empathy. Todd possesses a deep understanding of the needs of the folks that produce content, but he also has an incredible grasp of how the tools he has mastered serve those who CONSUME the content. In a very deep field of folks with the technical savvy to develop/integrate and support a CMS this truly makes Todd a standout. I wouldn't hesitate to work with Todd again should the opportunity arise. He fixes my problems before I know I have them........”

“I met Todd Nowlan during my 16 months internship at Nortel; It's been a real pleasure to work under Todd's supervision within the NTDA toolset team. He is a great manager and mentor, and I've learned a whole lot from him. Todd has a unique way of explaining new projects and tasks that eases the tentions and helps you concentrate on the work that needs to be done. He is always very easy going and supportive, which is why I always enjoy working on one of his projects. Thank you Todd, it is an honour to be part of your team!”
