- Organize and manage communications with stakeholders and senior leaders on project execution and delivery. Develop and provide ongoing project status, summaries, scorecards and program/project performance trends to senior leaders and stakeholders.

**Preferred skills/experience**:

- Understanding and ability to coach/train fundamental Agile principles and techniques
- Bring ideas from professional facilitation, coaching, conflict management, mediation and so on to help the team become a high-performance team
- Able to challenge preconceived ideas in order to bring out the best results in our people
- Champion continuous improvement activities to reduce waste and increase productivity; coach organization to conduct continuous improvements events
- Good skills and knowledge of lean, servant leadership, facilitation, situational awareness, conflict resolution, continual improvement, empowerment, and increasing transparency.
- Knowledge of various well-documented patterns and techniques (example: scrum, Kanban, XP, DevOps, story mapping, example mapping, transformation plans, operating models, scaled agile frameworks).
