• Identify risks, inefficiencies and suggest improvements.
• Challenge the status quo. Ask WHY?
• Bring new ideas forward on how to add value and improve delivery.
• Push back when processes or assumptions are slowing things down.

Requirements Elicitation and Documentation

• Collaborate with stakeholders to craft smart solutions to complex problems.
