What is the Enterprise-Class Operational Excellence course about?
Professionals in regulated environments often rely on best practices that look strong on paper but collapse under real-world compliance cycles, cross-functional dependencies, and audit timelines. Gaps in documentation, inconsistent control points, and reactive rather than proactive design lead to rework, delays, and avoidable findings.
