Our teams are cross-functional. What types of roles do you have experience working with in a leadership capacity?

Remember to mention any groups you play a leadership role in that are stakeholder centric. For example, you might explain that you regularly facilitate a stakeholder meeting, or that you are responsible for assigning and reporting the status of client assigned work for your programs.

"The teams I work with now as a program manager are cross-functional. I lead enterprise-level HR initiatives, and the resources vary depending on the type of projects. I have led product managers, project managers, analysts, engineers, support teams, etcetera. Also, our organization typically designates stakeholders that serve as subject matter experts that are matrixed. They report to one manager from an HR perspective, but I lead their work assignments. They represent domains like onboarding, hiring, provisioning, properties, and security.

I also lead a steering committee that has senior management representation from across our entire organization. The programs I lead typically affect every area of our business at one level or another, and I facilitate the discussions to set direction and review our roadmaps."
