In addition, you collect insights that help shape the roadmap, priorities and rhythm of the transformation journey. You evaluate organizational readiness and ensure that the pace of change remains manageable for the business. This includes monitoring cognitive load and identifying risks early in the process. You will regularly communicate with senior stakeholders and contribute strategic insights to the transformation program.
