Achieving Alignment and Delivering Results with the Process Inventory Framework
Digital transformation sounds like a golden promise: streamlined operations, delighted customers, sleek new revenue streams. But here’s the plot twist: 70% of digital transformation efforts fail. Not because of bad tech or lack of ideas, but because of something deceptively simple: misalignment.
In a world of rapid tech evolution, alignment is the unglamorous yet mission-critical foundation that most organizations overlook. That’s where this insightful guide steps in, offering more than just philosophy. It introduces a full-fledged operating system: the Process Inventory framework.
This book isn’t here to cheerlead vague innovation mantras. Instead, it delivers a battle-tested, methodical approach to syncing your strategy, operations, and people. From the C-suite to the front lines, and across every department, the book dives into two essential kinds of alignment:
Vertical alignment: Ensuring the company’s grand vision connects meaningfully to the daily work of individual contributors.
Horizontal alignment: Breaking down silos so departments collaborate as a cohesive whole, not isolated units.
At the heart of the framework is the Process Inventory, a smart, structured method that acts as the connective tissue of your organization. It builds a shared language, increases transparency, and lays the foundation for truly agile, cross-functional execution.
The guide also shows how this framework integrates seamlessly with existing approaches such as Change Management, Lean Six Sigma, Business Architecture, Enterprise Architecture, and Risk Management. It adds value to what is already working rather than replacing it. You will also find actionable insights on integrating emerging technologies like AI, microservices, and intelligent automation, all grounded in real-world case studies and modeling techniques.
Who should read this? Visionary executives, transformation leaders, and process professionals ready to move past buzzwords and finally make digital transformation stick. If you’re tired of seeing big ideas stall in the execution phase, this book offers a blueprint to turn vision into value across the entire organization.
