Digital Disruption
“Leading a global team through a major digital transformation felt chaotic, with misaligned priorities and constant setbacks. After applying the program’s disruption playbook, we created a clear roadmap, gained leadership buy-in, and accelerated a stalled initiative, ultimately reducing project delays by 40%."
CTO I EPAM
Industry Disruption
“Frequent industry changes and regulatory shifts left my team overwhelmed and reactive, leading to operational bottlenecks and disengagement. By using the program’s leadership frameworks, we streamlined decision-making, improved team agility, and created a culture of adaptability that reduced inefficiencies and boosted morale."
VP I Wells Fargo
Market Disruption
“Market fluctuations and supply chain disruptions were threatening business continuity, forcing them into short-term, reactive decision-making. With the strategies from this program, we transitioned to a proactive approach, developed contingency plans, and led our organization to not only stabilize but increase revenue during unpredictable conditions.”
