Professional Experience: |
Todd Thompson has over twenty years of combined experience in project management, private-sector development, trade facilitation and policy issues, market systems, proposal development, access to finance, agriculture, agribusiness and cooperative development, WASH, nutrition, utilization of Care Groups, and climate-smart agriculture.
He is an innovative manager with over 15 years of directly managing projects as a Chief of Party or providing oversight to multiple projects as a Regional Director or a USAID Agriculture Development Officer. Todd is administratively strong in the areas of financial management/budgeting, operations, human resources, organizational representation, sub-grantee/contract management, Collaboration, Learning, and Adapting (CLA), and new business development. His experience working with the private sector in agribusiness and cooperative development prior to becoming involved in international development gives him a unique blend of having experience in development and the private sector.
Todd is a leader in the technical areas of market systems development, trade facilitation and policy, agribusiness, and cooperative development along with food security and climate-smart agriculture. Using CLA, Todd always looks for impactful delivery of projects he manages and when not occurring, makes changes in field activities to maximize results. He is an excellent networker and a strong collaborator with all involved from the beneficiaries, through the partners, government entities up to the donor. His management style promotes a coaching/mentoring role.
