a day in the life of a Strategy Manager:

• You are up for any challenge and variety is the spice of life! Your comfort zone is “no comfort” zone, you figure out ways to solve strategic problems new to the organization and new to you.
• You are a sharp strategic thinker and a thought partner for executive leaders. You’re comfortable asking “why” and getting to what makes us different.
• You can solve problems by quickly getting to the core of an issue through investigation and analysis, and you can take data to insights and ultimately to action.
• Leadership presence is your super power; you enroll the organization in your project(s) and effectively build relationships across the business.
• You lead projects by yourself and are comfortable holding cross functional partners accountable for results.
• Once you have enrollment, you can also implement, through leading cross functional projects based on organizational needs.
• You are responsible for your own learning and personal development, guided by a strong team and company culture dedicated to setting you up for success. Through your contributions you will grow and develop.
