• Needs Discovery: Uncover business goals, constraints, and success metrics through structured questioning and active listening.
• Ambiguity Navigation: Make sound judgment calls when details are unclear, and escalate with context and recommended options when needed.
• Stakeholder Management: Coordinate across internal stakeholders to ensure client needs are understood, prioritized, and delivered.
• Issue Resolution: Identify risks early, manage escalations professionally, and drive problems to resolution with minimal friction.
• Reporting and Insights: Provide concise updates, highlight trends, and translate client sentiment into operational improvements.
