A day in the life
You start the day reviewing tickets for tech teams, you see that most teams are going smoothly, but one seems to be stuck, you make a note to drop by later to help unblock them. You spend the morning writing a decision document for the head of marketplace marketing, making sure it will get the decisions you need to move faster. In the afternoon you check in with the teams you are partnering with, and unblock the stuck team. You end by sending reminders of an upcoming due-date for a compliance project to make sure everyone is on-track
