Why ZBTOS

Your enterprise already has delivery and change-management methods. What brings the transformation operating model together?

Project, agile, Lean and change-management disciplines each do their job well. ZBTOS integrates a specific set of transformation tasks those disciplines do not own together: establishing the operating conditions a transformation must satisfy, reading the actual operating model across functions and handoffs, translating objectives into governable operating requirements, working those requirements through application and enablement, and establishing the evidence for operating outcomes and governance decisions. Teams keep the methods they use. ZBTOS gives them one methodology to connect them, built from four components that work together: the Governing Criteria of Zero-Based Transformation™, GSDPI™, BRACE™ for Transformation and the ZBTOS™ operating system.

senior transformation leaders across 20 countries: enterprises are accelerating transformation faster than they build the operating capabilities needed to sustain it. Mature enterprise orchestration distinguishes the stronger performers.

Every initiative re-earns its place against the operating change it produces.

That is the discipline your teams learn, and the question your CFO is already asking.

Ready for AI
Before AI can act on the work, the work needs requirements, decision rights and evidence.

Defining them is what your team learns. It is the same discipline every transformation needs, applied to the work an AI investment is meant to change.

The solutions

Four kinds of offering. Choose by the situation your enterprise is in.

These are choices, not a required sequence. Many enterprises begin with the Foundation Course.

Built for the whole executive team
Each executive sees their own function on the same coordinates as everyone else.

Finance, HR, IT and operations each read their part of a flow on its own, then compare it with the whole. The CFO and CSO set the value question; the COO, CTO, CHRO and CMO see where their teams answer it.

Why trust it

Taught by the principals who built it, on method they have run.

Every course is led by an ETEGY principal. The method was developed in transformation work at the enterprises below and is documented in three papers hosted here. Certificates recognize completion of the program standard; they are not external accreditation.
