Operating Model & Transformation Design

Target Operating Model Design

We support organisations in designing target operating models that enable strategy execution rather than constrain it.

This work often focuses on:

• Clarifying accountability and decision rights
• Aligning structures to strategic intent
• Reducing friction created by overlapping roles or unclear ownership
• Designing operating models that work across product, technology, and business boundaries

Engagements typically result in practical operating model artefacts, leadership alignment, and clearer execution pathways.

Strategy Execution & Alignment

Strategy execution through OKRs

GAPC supports organisations using OKRs as a mechanism for strategy execution and alignment — not as a reporting or compliance exercise.

This may include:

• Executive and leadership alignment on outcomes
• Designing OKR structures that fit existing governance
• OKR training and enablement for leaders and teams
• Coaching to support effective adoption and course correction

The focus is on making strategy actionable, not running OKRs as a parallel process.

GAPC works in partnership with Quantive to support organisations with OKR strategy, enablement, and execution — combining practical adoption support with alignment to enterprise-scale tooling where appropriate.

Product & Delivery Transformation

Project-to-product operating model transformation

We work with organisations moving from project-based delivery models to product-oriented ways of working.

This typically involves:

• Redesigning structures, roles, and funding models
• Supporting product leadership capability
• Aligning delivery, technology, and business stakeholders
• Product coaching and training where needed to support the shift

The work aims to create sustainable product operating models, not surface-level change.

Agile strategy & operating model design

GAPC supports organisations in shaping agile strategies and operating models that fit their enterprise reality.

This includes:

• Agile operating model design
• Leadership alignment on agile intent and boundaries
• Coaching in the context of real organisational constraints
• Addressing common failure modes that stall agile adoption

Agile coaching is offered as part of broader transformation work — always grounded in organisational context.

Transformation Recovery & Leadership

Fixing stalled or sluggish transformations

Many organisations engage GAPC when transformation efforts lose momentum or fail to deliver expected outcomes.

Transformations often stall not because of poor intent or capability, but because deep, unexamined cultural patterns quietly interfere with the outcomes being sought. GAPC brings particular strength in surfacing and working with these underlying cultural dynamics — especially where they create invisible resistance, misalignment, or unintended consequences that formal transformation efforts fail to address.

This work may involve:

• Executive coaching in the context of live transformation challenges
• Focused diagnostics to identify structural or decision-making blockers
• Consulting support to reset direction, scope, or operating assumptions
• Reassessing for cultural and organisational readiness

The emphasis is on unblocking progress, restoring clarity, and helping leaders make informed decisions under complexity.

AI-Led Transformation

AI opportunity assessment (reference)

GAPC supports organisations exploring how AI can create real business value — beyond pilots, tooling, or hype.

AI opportunity assessments typically focus on:

• Identifying high-value AI use cases
• Assessing organisational readiness and constraints
• Supporting leadership decision-making around AI investment

This service often acts as an entry point to broader AI adoption, enablement, or transformation work.
