Problem

Scenario

You are leading a cross-functional analytics initiative and need support from teams that do not report to you. Different stakeholders want different outcomes: one wants speed, another wants higher data quality, and a third wants to minimize operational disruption. You need their alignment before the project can move forward.

Question

Give an example of a project where you had to influence stakeholders. How did you align competing priorities, make trade-offs clear, and keep the project moving?
