What is the Implementation-Focused Operating-Model Design course about?

Teams invest heavily in strategy and rollout, yet struggle with inconsistent execution, misaligned incentives, and operational drift across sites. Without a clear, implementation-focused operating model, even well-resourced programs face delays, cost overruns, and diluted impact.
