Overview

Today’s organizations find themselves in an increasingly competitive marketplace. As competitors move fast and consumer demands evolve faster than ever before, the ability and willingness to be agile is critical but not sufficient.

Organizations need an enterprise capability to constantly define their purpose (the “why”) and focus (the “what”) at all levels to maximize value creation and delivery.
