  • Ensuring successful onboarding of all new clients within your track – overseeing initial overarching strategy, account management / collaboration process is set up for success, and client interactions and performance are off to a healthy start.
  • Successfully scaling layers of management and ensuring career pathing / goals are being established for every member of your team.
  • Identifying succession plans for your team and cultivating talent development for upward mobility.
