    "During my internship at Inceptra Analytics, our team was working on improving the monthly reporting process for the operations department. I proposed switching from manual Excel reports to a Power BI dashboard to automate and visualize key metrics. However, some team members were hesitant—they felt the current process, although tedious, was more familiar and controllable. My task was to get buy-in from the team to adopt a more efficient reporting method without causing disruption or resistance."
