“Michael is an exceptionally quick study. His enthusiasm to learn, understand, and solve problems is truly unique. While working together on several rebranding projects, he was able to work at an extremely high intensity level for weeks. The work we did together was award winning and more importantly it helped our customer's business grow. All was achieved on shoe string budgets and completed on impossible timelines.”

Here's how you can identify and analyze problems as an IT Operations professional.
The best way to identify and analyze problems* through the combination of The Scientific Method (from 3rd grade) and Kaizen (thank you @Masaaki Imai) 1) Start by observing the system in question 2) Define a Question to Investigate 3) Make Predictions 4) Gather Data 5) Analyze the Data 6) Draw Conclusions: In the drawing of conclusions, create an action plan with measures to be monitored over time. 7) Implement the action plan and measure! 8) Review the implementation against the conclusions. 9) Always be sure that you inspect the SYSTEM in which the unit operated to ensure that the system didn't suffer at the unit's benefit. *NB - It doesn't matter if it's an "IT" system or a "business" system, the process is the same.

You’re in charge of IT operations. How can you use project management to streamline your workflow?
The first step in streamlining operations is to fully understand what the "IS" is and what needs to change. Really simple (aka - back to the basics) Business Analytics best practices of observing work in the wild will help identify where the opportunity lays. Then document (in your own words and language) what the change entails. Circle back with stakeholders up & down the value-stream to ensure that there's no unintended consequences.

What are the common hybrid cloud challenges and how to overcome them?
One of the most important themes across all cloud migration challenges has been hardening the LAN/WAN topology. A disparate workforce (or hybrid in today's day/age) welcomes cloud-first with open arms, but an on prem employee base, accustomed to on-prem performance will be disappointed if the move to the cloud doesn't put performance above redundancy.
