• Facilitate steering committee sessions, establish clear operating mechanisms, and translate the feedback into prioritized enablement, content, process, and product actions.

• Use AI thoughtfully to improve how users access support, receive tailored guidance, and resolve common questions without increasing manual dependency.
• Recommend where CPH education and support content should live and partner with Product and related teams on the tooling or platform needed to scale access.
• Provide clear updates in steering committees and other cross-functional forums on adoption risks, enablement priorities, user readiness, and progress against key actions.
• Build trusted partnerships across Product, Category Management, Vendor Experience, Analytics, Operations, and other stakeholder teams to drive alignment and action.
