What is the Modern Operating-Model Redesign course about?

Even well-resourced teams struggle to align strategy with delivery when operating models are fragmented across functions. Silos persist, velocity drops, and compliance gaps emerge, not from intent, but from structural misalignment. The cost isn’t just delayed outcomes; it’s eroded trust in program leadership.
