This included establishing new strategic partnerships, ensuring seamless alignment between technology strategy and implementation, and orchestrating collaboration between internal teams and external partners. I identified critical challenges, developed actionable insights through data-driven analyses, and presented strategic recommendations to key stakeholders.
