• Identify inefficiencies, diagnose root causes, and implement structured, sustainable solutions using lean, agile, and continuous improvement principles.
• Translate strategic priorities into executable plans, defining owners, milestones, and success metrics while keeping the CEO and leadership team aligned and focused.
• Serve as the operational backbone of the CEO Office — ensuring strategy, programs, and cross-functional initiatives are coordinated, tracked, and delivered with impact.

Growth Strategy Programs

• Lead cross-functional growth initiatives from problem definition and planning through execution and measurement, focusing on strategic priorities rather than GTM operations.
• Build business cases, impact models, and frameworks to prioritize high-leverage growth opportunities and initiatives.
