Travel: Supporting with complex travel arrangements, including helping ensure the most effective and efficient travel and event choices are made.

HR Liaison: Assisting with onboarding for new staff and coordinating annual reviews.

Communication: Managing the "Administrative Updates" flow, ensuring the team is aware of sabbatical dates,vacation windows and other key information.

The "Follow-Up" Spirit: An innate drive to finish tasks and a low tolerance for loose ends.
Relational Intelligence: High empathy for a team dealing with complex personal contexts (e.g. sabbaticals, family or health issues.).
Discernment & Tenacity: While the team provides the Invention (new strategies) and Galvanizing (getting people excited), you provide the Discernment to say, "This schedule appears too tight for the team's current capacity," and the Tenacity to say, "I’ve followed up three times, and the grant is finally filed."
