Problem

Tell me about a time when you had to work with a difficult stakeholder to implement a risk mitigation strategy at Navy Federal Credit Union. How did you gain their buy-in? Explain the risk, the stakeholder's concerns, your specific approach, and the outcome. Focus on how you handled disagreement, used evidence, balanced risk with business needs, and took ownership without relying solely on escalation.
