Also, support the internal and external relationships to facilitate that cross-functional collaboration across these opportunities. 

• Communication: Activate the necessary communication channels to effectively distribute updates across the organization, foster a sense of belonging and inclusion for onshore and offshore teams, support knowledge sharing, and contribute to organizational transparency especially during periods of heavy change. 

• Leadership: Mentor team members, driving talent development and facilitating key client meetings
