• Proactively identify and address any impediments that hinder the team’s ability to meet goals, using problem-solving techniques to remove obstacles.
• Foster a collaborative environment across cross-functional teams, including developers, testers, operations, and other stakeholders, even in distributed work environments.
• Provide clear and timely communication, including status updates, executive-level reports, and project documentation, ensuring transparency and keeping all stakeholders informed.
