About

I’m Yung Kyra Le, a deadline-driven transformation and project professional with deep experience across the full project lifecycle—from scoping and planning through delivery, testing, and business readiness. I started as a Business Analyst and evolved into Project Lead and SAFe-aligned delivery, combining strong TOM (Target Operating Model) expertise with pragmatic change management to help teams execute successfully in highly regulated environments.

Across finance, financial crime, risk, operations, and technology transformations, I’ve led enterprise-scale programmes and initiatives including PMO set-ups, governance frameworks, and end-to-end migrations. I’m experienced in stakeholder management at senior level, building clear roadmaps and work breakdown structures, driving RAIDD management, and translating strategy into measurable outcomes—while also applying AI adoption approaches from proof of concept through integration to improve speed, clarity, and decision-making.
