What is Your Transformation Score?

“Why is there a need to transform?” was one of the questions that have been coming up quite frequently after we published the report Building the Transformational Company

We have developed a tool that can guide you on this journey. Take the test to get your transformation score.

I had the great pleasure of taking Strategy Tool’s “Building the Transformational Company” in the Autumn of 2020 and it was personally revelational. The canvas that visualized the political support that I might have for a major transformation was a gut-punch for me, as I recalled my own leadership dilemmas from the past and suddenly it was all obvious why I had found myself so frustrated in my inability to move the organization. How I wished that I knew then, what Strategy Tools has helped me see so clearly now!

TESTIMONIAL

A fantastic deep immersion into Transformational Strategy!

I recently completed the Strategy Tools “Building the Transformational Company” program, and was really energized by the entire experience.

I have an MBA with a concentration in Strategy from a globally competitive program, and have spent several years in internal strategy leadership and external strategy consulting roles, so wasn’t sure how much of the approach was going to be new for me.

What I found, to my surprise, is something that I’ve been suspecting for some time… The relatively static, multi-year Strategy models and frameworks that I was educated in are quite simply out of date.

In today’s highly disruptive, tech-enabled markets, Competitive Strategy must be much more dynamic, experiment driven, and a permanent organizational competency.

The Strategy Tools team has done an amazing job of: 1. Bringing this reality to life in clear and compelling ways, 2. Designing a Transformational Strategy framework that is both accessible and cohesive, and 3. Providing a robust set of tools that can be leveraged to initiate the right conversations with leaders and build a rock solid foundation for an organization’s Transformational journey.

Thanks for all the work on this Chris and team – we’re all benefitting tremendously from your vision and work in this space!
