Lead the strategy for in-flow-of-work experiences that surface trusted content, guidance, and intelligent assistance the moment sellers need them, reducing time spent searching for what to say or send. Stand up coaching, practice, and reinforcement loops that help sellers build proficiency and give frontline managers clearer signals for targeted coaching, including the use of AI Role Play tools where they create meaningful readiness signals. Own the readiness analytics and measurement framework that creates visibility into how platform adoption, content engagement, seller readiness, and behavior change influence pipeline conversion, win rate, and revenue performance, partnering with Sales Operations.
