Regularly engage stakeholders and external teams to communicate the status of various in-flight developments and anticipate the result of schedule changes to other teams. Be adept at building trust and exerting product influence across teams and business units. Build a culture, KPIs and audit processes for managing your team to exercise strategic thinking, move fast, and deliver consistently on both short and long-term initiatives.
