  • Track and report change/adoption KPIs for assigned initiatives (e.g., readiness, engagement, training completion, early usage, sentiment) and recommend adjustments based on insights.
  • Facilitate small-group sessions (working meetings, feedback sessions, office hours) to gather input, build understanding, and improve adoption.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement of the Change Management Office by updating templates, documenting lessons learned, and sharing reusable practices across initiatives.
