the skills needed to drive growth in a competitive landscape. Build a strong performance culture

within the team while ensuring the sales approach is aligned to the company vision and

philosophy.

c. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Foster strong collaboration between sales, marketing,

operations, tech/product and finance teams to drive seamless execution and rapid results.


8. Data-Driven Decision Making and Analytics

a. Business Intelligence & Analytics: Leverage data analytics and insights to optimize business

strategies. Use KPIs and dashboards to monitor performance across all functions.

b. Agile Adjustments: Make quick, data-driven adjustments to strategies and operations as market
