IT'S TIME TO SHIFT

How do I know? If you're like me, you're experiencing the rapid change and nearly daily innovation occurring all around us. It’s disrupting how we live, work, play and how we compete in business. As a business leader, you're expected & compelled to see ‘around the corner’ all of those looming changes that threaten to upend your status quo. That disruption--which we expect will help create better access to information, customer experience, internal productivity and cycle time improvements-- can and will require a shift in business strategy. As a leader, you want to ensure you drive to know “what must be true for me or my organization to achieve success?” Do you develop T shaped leaders? Is your organization intellectually curious, and is a conductor of a collaborative ecosystem? Business transformation also requires a shift in organizational competencies and the corporate culture to help set you up as the benchmark in your market.

And I inspire and empower audiences with my experiences—given via stories and easy to remember quips .

TRANSFORMING

Transformation. That is becoming an increasingly common word, but actually transforming is not very common, and appears to be quite elusive.  Many companies that are driving  digital transformation, tend to focus on digital – but not on the transformation itself. The three key  strategies  required to successfully transform your business include

  1. TRANSFORM WHY YOU ARE IN BUSINESS  by reimagining the central idea or strategy that will be critical for you to differentiate yourself in the market.

  2. TRANSFORM HOW YOU WILL DO BUSINESS to drive seamless customer fulfillment and internal operational efficiencies

  3. TRANSFORM WHAT IT WILL TAKE within your culture that includes digital literacy and willingness to change to take advantage of the tools and new thinking required to win.

With 30+ years in Fortune 50 companies as a digital and business  leader and currently serving on the board of 3 corporations, I’ve had a 360 view of what success looks like and how to achieve it in a VUCA world. My team and I provide advisory service to help companies stop talking about transformation , and actually start transforming.
