Topic: Panel review of Bias for Action response. Panel Consensus: The panel unanimously criticizes the candidate's response for lacking a specific story or example, rendering Bias for Action theoretical and unsubstantiated without metrics, trade-offs, or cross-functional details. Priya attributes this to poor story choice given the expert summary's note of adequate overall capabilities, but Marcus, David, Michael, and Sarah push back, viewing it as indicative of deeper gaps in customer empathy, experimentation, operational rigor, results execution, and technical ownership. This creates a split, with no full consensus on hire but shared doubt on whether the candidate can demonstrate senior-level bold action.
