SDM Performance & Capability – Provide coaching, performance oversight, and capability development to SDMs. Matrix Resource Coordination – Coordinate dotted‑line resources across programs to ensure alignment and contribution to regional outcomes. Standardization & Continuous Improvement – Reinforce governance cadence, reporting structures, KPI frameworks, and identify best practices for replication.
