- Identify and execute upgrades to Pismo to address evolving client needs, local market conditions, and foster innovations beneficial to both clients and Visa.
- Motivate, challenge, and mentor the extended team to enhance their problem-solving and product management abilities.
- Support competitive analysis, customer insights, and market studies with market-facing teams to aid the development of new features and capabilities.
- Play a significant role in assessing new market opportunities and potential partnerships, including alternative sales models (e.g. through System Integrators).
- Influence budget and financial planning by offering insights into potential revenue opportunities and associated costs.
- Create strategies and approaches for the development of necessary product readiness materials, operating models, and business plans. Advocate for funding, monitor performance, and utilize insights for future growth.
- Develop strategies for providing ongoing training and information materials to help market teams effectively sell and deploy Pismo and supporting VAS products.
- Prepare and deliver presentations and documentation for both internal and external audiences through working groups, webinars, and other formats regarding product ownership.
- Promote Pismo by building extensive internal partnerships within Visa across various functions regionally.
- Offer advice and thought leadership, contributing strategically to the broader Pismo business team while driving the thought leadership within the solutions management team.
