• Monitor performance and dynamically adjust plans based on funnel health, regional priorities, and SAP GTM shifts.
• Design, establish, and evolve SAP field marketing standards and playbooks that can be reused across regions and teams.
• Ensure standards scale beyond the immediate team with minimal oversight, driving consistent adoption and impact.
