Position Manager (Services) - India Picture of Success A Pinnacle Manager is the delivery owner of the Customer Strategy Team. This means: 1. High-quality and predictable results are delivered by everyone using Pinnacle's best practices 2. Alignment is high through the enforcement of TPW cadence 3. Team members rapidly grow and develop into future Leads, Managers, SEs, and Partners Performance Evaluation and Coaching Managers' performance is evaluated during quarterly CSRs following the TPW structure. The rating is the weighted average of all the CSR scores, applying the following weights: Delivery: 50% | Solve: 20% | Align: 20% | Understand: 10% Additional coaching happens during monthly project reviews and one-on-ones with the Director of Operations and Senior Managers. More importantly, coaching is ongoing and not limited to formal sessions. The best growth moments usually occur while working with team members and peers. Everyone should actively seek feedback and coaching, independent of titles and formality. Tactics & Habits of Strong Managers High-quality and predictable results are delivered by everyone using Pinnacle's best practices Tactic Build and maintain a project plan to deliver the committed value to the customer. Habit Never start work without a visible plan. Review and adjust the plan weekly based on progress and risks. Align tasks to plan outcomes daily. Own the outcome.

Perform root causes analysis for trending errors, treat it as a process problem and fix it systemically. Habit Rework is never silently absorbed. Patterns surface automatically and trigger a fix. The instinct should be to review the process first. Misses automatically trigger a 'what do we learn from this' conversation, not a 'who is responsible' one. RCAs are the team's normal response to failure, not an exception reserved for big escalations. Tactic Ensure that Newton and QRO are being actively used to diagnose and solve reliability problems. Where they aren't, redirect and coach in the moment. Habit The team's first instinct when facing a reliability problem is to go to Newton and QRO, not around them. Newton and QRO are embedded in how the team thinks, not tools they remember to use occasionally. Tactic Drive a clear adoption strategy for Newton/QRO, ensuring co
