• Lead effective discovery conversations, ask thoughtful questions, challenge assumptions constructively, and collaborate with stakeholders to develop solutions.
• Apply strong emotional intelligence when navigating organizational change, competing priorities, and workflows that may be materially affected by AI.
• Communicate AI concepts clearly and practically to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Evaluate solution effectiveness through adoption, user feedback, business outcomes, and other available measures.
• Develop reusable patterns, templates, playbooks, documentation, and best practices that can be applied across teams.
