• Manage dependencies, risks, and trade-offs while maintaining focus on value delivery

• Demonstrated ability to communicate with authority, clarity, and credibility ("gravitas")
• Excellent understanding of agile delivery frameworks and product management best practices
• Strong stakeholder management and consulting skills
