Today CEOs face a trifecta of a challenge. They must simultaneously run, grow, and transform the company to win in the current marketplace. Many CEOs are responding with Program Management Offices, a 1990s construct for overseeing transformations, coupled with the same vintage process of Continuous Improvement. These models are being resurrected to organize, manage, and track the ever-increasing flow of change initiatives designed to meet their new three-fold challenge.

Are they working? The short answer is no.

CEOs and Executive Leadership Teams must employ a new process called “Continuous Transformation.” Today, business value shifts regularly and roles, work, and talent must be redesigned and redeployed in response. By consistently tracking the work, the CEO and Executive Leadership Team can now drive a precision transformation with the fewest possible actions creating the most value in time for the company to win.
