I establish clear account plans and executive engagement motions for priority accounts, then inspect leading indicators such as adoption, stakeholder coverage, pipeline creation, and renewal forecast quality. This gives managers time to address risk while creating a disciplined path to expansion. How would you lead a team containing both Account Managers and Customer Success Managers? I would define shared customer outcomes alongside distinct responsibilities. Customer Success should drive adoption, value realization, and health signals, while Account Management owns commercial strategy, renewals, and expansion; both teams need common account plans, escalation paths, and operating rhythms. I would measure collaboration through customer outcomes and revenue results rather than allowing functional handoffs to create gaps. Describe your approach to forecasting renewals and expansion revenue. I use a standardized forecast process that combines CRM stage data with qualitative inspection of customer value, decision process, executive sponsorship, product adoption, procurement, and competitive risk. Managers should identify downside scenarios early and document mitigation actions, while upside expansion is qualified against a real business case and buying process. Forecast accuracy improves through regular deal reviews and calibration against historical conversion patterns. How do you build executive relationships in complex enterprise accounts? I coach teams to map economic buyers, champions, operational owners, and potential blockers across the account. Executive meetings should be anchored in measurable business outcomes, strategic priorities, and a forward-looking roadmap rather than product updates. As a leader, I would personally engage on strategic accounts, major renewals, and escalations where executive alignment can materially improve partnership value. What would your first 90 days in this role look like? I would first assess team capability, portfolio segmentation, renewal coverage, forecast reliability, customer-health signals, and current account-management processes. Next, I would align with the GM Canada and cross-functional partners on targets, operating cadence, escalation mechanisms, and the highest-priority customer risks and growth opportunities. By the end of 90 days, I would aim to have clear performance expectations, repeatable account-planning standards, and an action plan for talent development and revenue improvement.
