Business Transformation Workshop One

Workshop One: Visualizing and Developing a Strategy for Business Transformation

Business transformation is about more than the latest ERP system. It's about making significant changes in the four foundational areas of any organization -- Strategy, Infrastructure, Processes and People. Strategic change in these four areas enables the organization to go beyond its current vision to create a new value proposition.

Workshop Description:

In this two-day workshop, participants examine their organization’s readiness for business transformation. Using proven assessment models, the goal is to understand the current state of the business, visualize the desired future state, and measure the gaps in between. This understanding enables leaders to plan a business transformation strategy that will move the organization in the right direction.

Pre-workshop Assignment: Prior to Workshop One, participants are asked to read brief introductory material, and to complete an assessment protocol that will prepare them to embark on the journey of business transformation. Read more
