• developing a new operating model to reduce time to market by 30 percent for an apparel and fashion company by creating a leaner, nimbler, and digitally-enabled organization
• enabling an organization to grow globally by migrating from a regional operating model toward a global one, with several billion dollars in sales uplift since implementation
• creating a digital operating model for an established packaged goods company, including a digitally-enhanced value chain, an adjusted channel mix with a much higher share of online sales and 20 percent private-label e-commerce sales, and digital capability building
• designing a leaner, more cost-efficient operating model, with a five-percentage-point impact on the bottom line, by refocusing an organization and its resources on its core mission
• developing a ten year strategy for a global consumer company including a clear roadmap for implementation
• designing a growth strategy for a global food player in a mature market by revamping the innovation and go-to-market process
