This whole paragraph is confusing I think. It is convoluted as it mentions several things including change management. ...but how is that linked to team productivity. I suggest you rewrite and include it as ' Change Control' instead of process improvement and please reword. I will suggest : 'Enforced a robust Change Management Processes including an automated change control process which achieved a significant decrease in unauthorized or unapproved changes 9This saved the project £40 million that would have accrued from uncontrolled scope changes) and enhanced visibility and accountability in the change request process'.
I suggest to replace with ' Successfully spearheaded data-driven decision-making processes within the PMO and across project teams. I also devised and deployed real-time project dashboards for stakeholders to visualize key project metrics, improving data accuracy by 70% and resulting in enhances project performance, and continuous improvement across the organization'.
