What you'll learn
Target Operating Model
In 30 minutes, use a decision map to clarify HQ control, business unit ownership, and when decisions require escalation.
Decide what stays local
Distinguish decisions business units can make independently from those that need shared rules.
Know when to involve other teams
Identify when spending, customer information or consequences for another unit mean a local decision needs shared input.
Build your first decision map
Use a simple one-page map to name the decision owner, the shared boundary and when others should get involved.
Why this topic matters
Teams buy overlapping AI tools. Headquarters becomes an approval queue. Costs and mistakes have no clear owner.
More central control is not the only answer.
If you lead data, AI or transformation across business units, learn to set clear decision boundaries: what teams can decide locally, which rules they must share and when others need to be involved.
Give teams room to act without duplicate spending or blurred responsibility.
