70% of transformations fail
This failure rate has remained stubbornly high for decades*. Why?
Executives need a different playbook because transformations are a different sport. Without a firm and understandable framework, every executive and team will struggle to lead a program across the finish line.
Siven Group's mission is to build proficiency within high-performing organizations to confidently start, lead, and finish transformations that matter.
We believe that transformations are not magic: proficiency can be developed and success can become predictable and probable. When executives have a clear vision of the critical success factors of business transformation, they will be able to apply leadership skills to overcome the unique challenges facing their organization and transformation.
