As a co-pilot, who sees how all the components come together, we watch out that the entire result is best for the company. How do we get there? We build trust that we are a strong co-pilot. We always try to best support every team and the entire company. Outputs we produce (processes, reports) are looked at through the eyes of the recipients.
