Challenge
To capitalize on vast market opportunities, the client needed to transform their way of working. The strategy required top management to coordinate efforts in new ways across functions that previously operated as independent units. As the current business was highly profitable and necessary to finance growth, the new and old ways of working would need to coexist for a gradual shift. This posed a significant risk that the strategic goals would lose focus in favor of short-term opportunities and decisions.
Solution
The client implemented Benelizer® Cloud to facilitate effective and coordinated decision-making among top managers. Additionally, the solution engaged the organization by visualizing the new strategy and inviting key stakeholders to provide regular feedback. The client was able to build momentum and maintain focus on the new strategy by regularly convening top management around the Score Map. Key insights for each initiative were utilized to remove obstacles and provide support for the organization.
