  • Ruthless prioritization skills and the ability to create a focus for a team that is often pulled in multiple directions
  • Strong consultative skills, including the ability to conduct discovery, create solutions to problems, and facilitate workshops / learning opportunities to ensure that the problems in the field are limited to knowledge or skill problems vs a process or environment problem before jumping in to help solve
  • Highly organized with excellent communication and presentation skills
  • Experience working in a fast-changing environment that requires strategic thinking, resourcefulness, agility, results-oriented decision making and commitment to excellence
  • Ability to travel as needed and potentially support other regions as needs arise
