When BOB underwent organizational changes and moved out of our last office, PM-Volunteers Pietro Widmer and Dan Suratos played key roles on our transition team.

PM-Volunteers also offers workshops for those in the project management field to further develop their skills. They have just released a new video about their workshops, and we are pleased to say that our Managing Director Liz Charyna is featured as one of the speakers. Be sure to check out the video, and don’t hesitate to contact PM-Volunteers the next time your organization could use some project management expertise!

Liz is also a Member of the BC Career Development Association (formerly ENET & CMA) and a Facilitator and Community Connector with PLAN Institute for Caring Citizenship. If she wasn’t busy enough with BOB and these organizations she’s also an accomplished dragon boat racer and a dancing machine (Just ask anyone who was at Toby Barazzuol’s recent disco-themed birthday bash!). Liz joined BOB 3 years ago as the Partnerships Development Coordinator, whose role was to enhance access to job opportunities for multi-barriered residents of the DTES.  According to Shirley Chan, CEO of BOB:

“Liz brought with her a positive attitude and quickly established herself as a valuable employee.  She stepped naturally into the leadership role of Manager of Partnerships and Supported Employment and with her team has achieved tremendous results supporting both employers and employees to attain an unprecedented 90% employee retention rate.  Go Liz, go!”

Liz’s incredible supply of positive energy, her leadership qualities and her dedication to her community and city definitely don’t go unnoticed. The entire team at BOB would like to congratulate Liz on all she has accomplished over the past 3 years and looks forward to being a part of her future success.
