8 Vectors
Our proprietary 8-Vector enterprise development framework
Executing innovation is accomplished when individuals with varied skill sets come together for the sole purpose of creating non-linear value. We team with our clients with a “company building” & “outside-in” focus across 8 major vectors representing key functional areas of the business.
Our proprietary 8-vector framework is applied to score & perform gaps analysis which is then used to key actions that align with the the joint 1000 day target roadmap. Periodic MIS assessments, along these 8-vectors, are done alongside comprehensive audits. The KPIs & assessment criteria are tailored from time to time, based on progress.
