The role works closely with the Office of the CPO, Communications/Marketing, and other teams to deliver coordinated, compelling change and engagement efforts. The Director is accountable for building enterprise change capability, strengthening leader sponsorship, managing resistance, and sustaining adoption across SEI's global footprint.
