Resumé

Spencer W. Willie

IMG_3990_edited.jpg

Throughout my 15 years of public service and 10 years business career I have committed myself to provide exemplary professional service to help improve the quality of life and public services for Indian Country.

 

As detailed in my resume, I possess extensive experience at all levels from working with community organizations like leading AmeriCorps programs at the local level to advocating for support of federal programs like Head Start with federal and state officials. Throughout my work experience I have learned the value of dedication and commitment to excellence and have always strived to exceed the expectations of my superiors and clients.

 

My employment history entails working for organizations, institutions and government agencies at levels of service, from grassroots community organizing to working across Indian Country on the National level. Aside from my actual work experience, I have extensive knowledge of public speaking, interpersonal communication, conflict resolution, human resources and a number of other areas related to effective organizational development and functional automation. I know I have the skills and talents, which answer to the specific needs of many organizations, public or private who seek to serve tribal communities.

I am a highly motivated individual, who in turn, encourages both motivation and respectable personal character in others. I feel that I have the capabilities and knowledge, more importantly the desire, to answer the specific needs of anyone seeking in a qualified applicant.
