It is pattern recognition.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Research consistently shows that 70\u201375% of large transformation\u00a0programmes\u00a0fail to\u00a0meet their original\u00a0objectives. More damaging than outright failure, however, is the slow burn:\u00a0programmes\u00a0that technically &#8220;complete&#8221; but deliver a fraction of the promised value, two years\u00a0late, at double the original budget.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Boards keep approving them anyway.

The\u00a0programme\u00a0exists to serve the outcome, not the other way around.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. 90-day value checkpoints as a non-negotiable governance mechanism<\/strong>\u00a0Every\u00a0programme, regardless of size, should be able to\u00a0demonstrate\u00a0measurable progress against its business outcome every\u00a090 days. If it\u00a0cannot, it should\u00a0be restructured or stopped.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. Portfolio sequencing over parallel enterprise change<\/strong>\u00a0Rather than running five transformation workstreams simultaneously and delivering nothing for\u00a018 months, sequence them.
