Explore the common design, change, and talent dilemmas that successful, high-growth companies face as they pursue continued revenue and market expansion at similar velocity.
In the pursuit of continued revenue and rapid market expansion, many of us have endured common design, change, and talent dilemmas. We will share example scenarios, ‘solutions’, and pitfalls from high-velocity growth clients, with a particular focus on…
- Aligning the Executive Team on the need for change and the new operating model vision
- When company culture becomes a growth-limiting factor
- Translating the business strategy and new operating model into actionable talent implications
Session participants will explore pragmatic, human-centered frameworks and tools, and will have the opportunity to practice applying them through a small group exercise.
