  • Contribute to the company's overall business strategy by providing customer insights and feedback that inform product development and go-to-market efforts.
  • Thought Leadership and Best Practices

  • Act as a thought leader within the Customer Success organization, contributing to the development of best practices and innovative approaches to account management.
  • Mentor and share expertise with other CSMs, fostering a collaborative culture focused on customer-centric solutions and continuous improvement.
  • Lead by example in customer communications, project management, and issue resolution, demonstrating excellence in all aspects of account management.
