-		- I have always strived to ensure we are think fog the bigger picture. Often thinking Big Picture thinking requires understanding the business context in which you are working, and driving to support the organizational goals within the current contraints. A good example is the ISV vision I created and presented,  detailing how our organization could adjust to develop an strong ISV ecosystem (as noted by Tanu in the Eval summary "developed a well-thought-out plan to strengthen our partner ecosystem moving forward."). This vision required some minimal investment from the org but that was no viable in FY25. Even without this investment
-		- Additionally I would argue that  being aware of the importance of the 'tactical' items and ensuring they are picked up is part of thinking big.

This is a strength we do need to leverage as much as we can.
 	- 2 - Proactive comms
 		- Not proactively communicating issues/gaps - I struggle to understand statement. I tried numerous times to raise key issues early on (WLE SKU need, potential to lose Core team continuity, etc) and each time was met with dismissal of these items by Tanu. One of the items, the WLE SKU then feel to me months later to drive to completion. I feel if I had been enabled to act on this earlier it would have improved our ties/partnership with the sales team (that needed this formalized to make life easier).
