Initiate conversations to connect customer objectives with the current Microsoft portfolio, aligning with organizational and customer success strategies.

Monitor consumption milestones, track product adoption and usage, and identify areas for improvement. Work to drive increased usage and leverage your understanding of customer retention and churn to proactively identify potential issues and opportunities.
