  • Influence and align stakeholders across a complex global organization to accelerate organizational readiness, capability development, and sustainable adoption.
  • Design and execute transformation strategies including stakeholder engagement, communications, learning, leadership alignment, and adoption planning.
  • Build and enable change champion networks and leadership communities that reinforce new behaviors and sustain momentum.
  • Establish metrics and feedback mechanisms to measure adoption, capability maturity, value realization, and transformation impact.
  • Identify organizational barriers and develop practical solutions that improve engagement, accelerate implementation, and increase business value.
  • Coach leaders and project teams to successfully lead transformation efforts while building lasting organizational capability.
  • Capture, scale, and institutionalize best practices that improve innovation productivity and operational excellence across the enterprise.

  • Proven ability to influence senior leaders and align diverse stakeholder groups without direct authority, leveraging strong communication, facilitation, consulting, and stakeholder management skills.
  • Strong understanding of organizational change, transformation, and adoption methodologies, with experience developing and executing strategies that drive measurable capability growth, adoption, and business performance improvements.
  • Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to use data, metrics, and insights to guide decisions, measure impact, and identify opportunities for continuous improvement.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience supporting R&D, engineering, product development, innovation, or other technology-intensive organizations, with an understanding of how technical work is translated into business value.
  • Experience implementing AI, advanced analytics, digital, portfolio management, or knowledge management capabilities to improve innovation effectiveness, productivity, or decision-making.
