Together we will develop a dynamic Business Capability map, an interactive Value-Stream and conduct a Maturity Assessment to identify opportunities for optimization.- Where does your organization keep their operating model today?- Do you have a universally accepted mental model for the business operating model?- Are your transformation initiatives guided and prioritized by their contribution to operating model optimization?Business architecture is the catalyst for addressing these questions. Organizations need to develop the unique cognitive muscle to be able to pivot quickly, ensuring that business operations are continuously aligned with shifting priorities. But if you can’t explain what you do, how do you explain what you should be doing?Capability-based planning is a strategic transformation methodology that leverages a comprehensive perspective of the business operating model, dynamic maturity assessments, and prioritized, value-aligned business drivers to enable continuous innovation.Participants in this workshop will be given a free software license that they can take back to their organizations and apply the principles learned in the workshop.
