Practical strategic advising

For your digital transformation efforts to succeed, you must carefully map the path to your goals. Critical evaluations of your current state, capabilities, teams, and budgets are necessary. A clear understanding of customer and business needs is mandatory. Metrics have to be established. And prioritization is vital.

While these may seem like individual tasks to be checked off a list, Leilani views them as practical and strategic waypoints on a roadmap designed for your team to reach together. With each step along the way, you and your team will grow in understanding of your company and each other, generate new ways of working, and potentially implement new tools or processes.

Roadmap activation

Once your practical strategy is in place, it’s time to act. Detailed implementation plans need to be defined for all initiatives. People, processes, tools, and culture changes may be in order. As work progresses, reevaluation and reprioritization may be needed. With multiple teams and team members working from the same roadmap, you need someone reliable to direct traffic.

Leilani led both customer-facing and internal projects for us – in both roles, she was exceptional.  She built trust with our customers and led multiple initiatives simultaneously in a thoughtful, organized manner.  For our internal projects, she facilitated a cross-company initiative in an extraordinarily collaborative way, and championed an organizational change management approach that greatly improved the success of the project result.  She is thoughtful and empathetic and a pleasure to work with.
