Organizations that don’t express strategy in the form of capabilities often end up asking, “Why isn’t the strategy working?” To solve that dilemma, Capabilities emerge as a “Rosetta Stone” to translate strategy into projects and processes that are needed to produce desired results. We contend that Capability Models replace organizational charts in discussions about delivery.&nbsp;It answers the question, “What must we be able to do to execute our strategy and deliver results?” This is the work of leaders at all levels.&nbsp;Capabilities connect the work of IT, Business Architecture, Organization Design, Lean Teams, the Project Management Office, and other functions trying to get the right things done.&nbsp;Apply methods and tools to define capabilities, practice modelling capabilities and assessing them. You will have more than 8 hours of direct access to the faculty, including time after each live session plus the opportunity to engage members of the cohort and learn from them.&nbsp;Following the course, you and your team will be prepared to look at your organization through the lens of capabilities and lead strategy pursuit.
