Capability building for transformation that actually sticks
The GAPC Academy provides training, enablement, and capability-building programmes for organisations navigating transformation across strategy, operating models, product, agile, and AI.
These programmes are designed for environments where change is complex, regulated, or high-accountability — and where training must translate into real organisational impact, not just knowledge transfer.
GAPC Academy programmes are often delivered as standalone training, and in many cases act as an entry point into broader advisory, consulting, or transformation work.
How GAPC Academy programmes work
GAPC Academy programmes are:
- Outcome-led — focused on improving execution, decision-making, and alignment
- Context-aware — shaped around real organisational challenges
- Practically grounded — informed by live transformation work
- Flexible in format — adapted to organisational needs rather than fixed curricula
Training is not treated as a one-off intervention. Where appropriate, programmes include coaching, advisory input, and applied work to support learning transfer and sustained change.
Delivery formats
Programmes may be delivered as:
- Private organisational programmes
Tailored training and enablement for leadership teams, product groups, delivery functions, or transformation communities. - Cohort-based programmes
Small groups working through shared capability themes over time. - Workshops and short-form training
Focused sessions addressing specific capability gaps or challenges. - Blended delivery
Combining training, coaching, and advisory support.
Delivery can be online or in-person, depending on context and geography.
Core capability areas
Strategy execution & OKRs
Training and enablement for organisations using OKRs as a mechanism for strategy execution and alignment, rather than reporting or compliance.
This may include:
- OKR fundamentals for leaders and teams
- Designing OKRs that fit existing governance and operating models
- Embedding OKRs into ways of working
- Coaching to support adoption and course correction
Where appropriate, this work is supported through GAPC’s partnership with Quantive.
Product operating models & product leadership
Capability building for organisations transitioning from project-based delivery to product-oriented operating models.
This includes:
- Product leadership capability development
- Role clarity and accountability
- Product strategy and discovery practices
- Product coaching grounded in real organisational contexts
The focus is on building sustainable product capability, not surface-level change.
Agile strategy & enterprise agility
Training and enablement supporting organisations in applying agile principles at scale, in ways that fit enterprise realities.
This may include:
- Agile foundations and advanced practices
- Leadership enablement for enterprise agility
- Agile operating model awareness
- Coaching aligned to live delivery and transformation challenges
Agile coaching is always delivered in service of broader transformation outcomes.
AI enablement for business and transformation leaders
Capability-building programmes that help leaders and teams work effectively with AI — beyond tools and prompts.
This includes:
- AI literacy for business and product leaders
- Applying AI in real organisational contexts
- Understanding risk, limitations, and governance considerations
- Working with AI-enabled systems, copilots, and decision support
AI enablement often complements broader AI advisory and transformation work delivered by GAPC.
Coaching as part of capability building
Coaching is offered as part of GAPC Academy programmes where it supports learning transfer and real-world application.
This includes:
- Executive coaching in transformation contexts
- Role-based coaching (product, delivery, transformation roles)
- Team coaching aligned to organisational goals
Coaching is never generic or life-oriented — it is always grounded in real organisational work and outcomes.
Who GAPC Academy programmes are for
GAPC Academy programmes support:
- Leaders accountable for transformation outcomes
- Product, delivery, and transformation roles
- Teams navigating new operating models or ways of working
- Organisations building capability alongside change
Programmes are suitable for both public and private sector environments.
