As a Management Analyst, you know that problem-solving and thinking outside the box concerning changing situations is imperative.

      Experienced Example

      "I believe in contingency plans. A Management Analyst needs to understand that ideally, we are going to do 'X,' but if that fails, we need to be ready to pivot and make sure that 'Y' happens. Having alternate scenarios mapped out removes the uncertainty and prepares everyone to adapt if a problem should arise."
