• Lead change management efforts associated with the shift to a data product-centric operating model, including communication planning, stakeholder alignment, and resistance mitigation.
• Partner with the Data Strategy and Product sub-teams to co-develop business cases, adoption metrics, and executive reporting that demonstrate the value of ONB's data investments.
