4. Learn dependencies.
Understand dependencies and cross-functional workflows to determine who needs something from you and what you depend on to be able to provide it.
Who are you providing work output to, and how do your cross-functional stakeholders use it?
Ask your manager who are the top 10 cross-functional people your team interacts with.
Then, spend time understanding how they view the workflows between the functions and what they need from your role to be successful. Understand the timing of workflows so you can meet deadlines and provide the most value with your work.
