"In my last job, I was asked to help design and implement a new customer resource management system. Management recommended we work with the premier vendor in this space and expected us to complete the project within three weeks. I was aware of a new product that had come to the market and took a chance with it. We were able to design and implement the CRM within two weeks, and the features and performance exceeded the specifications with which we were originally working. Management initially reacted negatively when I had not selecting their vendor. However, after viewing the system and seeing it perform, they were happy with the results."
