Capability Management

We believe you know your industry better than us.

We focus on value delivery – the application is largely common across industries.

There are a few dimensions of business common to all organisations – one of these is project delivery. We all have programs and projects – the key question is how (and why) we do them. Research has comprehensively demonstrated that there is no correlation between industry and results.

Your job

We are not arrogant enough to think we know your industry better than you. You are the Executive within your organisation – no doubt you have many years of experience in your industry. Further, industry-specific benchmark data and case studies are typically easily sourced, and a half-researched strategy department will be loaded with such numbers. However, we repeatedly find that project delivery maturity is inadequate in each industry.

Our job

Helping you address the gap between desired outcomes and reality. We focus on what we do – not necessarily where we do it.

True, a number of our consultants have significant industry expertise. Many have held CxO positions for strong, successful periods. They could probably match it with the leading industry advisers. But first and foremost, they know how to help you identify and deliver value.

An end state whose realisation can be simply measured, by anyone WITH A TRUE/FALSE QUESTION. This clarity ensures no confusion as to achievement. Our Desired Business Outcomes are the primary measure of business success, and Project Outcomes the primary measure of a (change) project’s success.

The beneficial result of the delivery of one or more outcomes. All benefits are measurable and verifiable, but only some are quantifiable.

Narrowly, is the quantifiable value of a benefit (usually in financial terms). Broadly, a project’s inclusive statement for outcomes, benefits and (quantified) value, plus the projects strategic contribution.

An individual attribute of consisting of knowledge, training, experience, aptitude and attitude – possession of the requisite skills and how to apply them effectively.
