Team Development and Leadership 

• Mentor and coach CRM Analysts and other teammates, reinforcing established standards, governance, and operational best practices. 
• Model accountability and professionalism while fostering a culture of continuous improvement and customer-focused service. 
• Act as the escalation point for complex cases, providing hands-on support for critical or high-priority user issues when needed.
