Capability Maps that talk business
5 heatmapping techniques that turn your map into an executive dashboard

Capability maps have a long history. They came out of business schools in the 50ies. In recent years the enterprise and business architecture communities seem to have taken over, making capabilities more of an IT rather than a business modeling concept. Most capability maps we've seen fail to achieve their original purpose: to enable business people to design better enterprises - ones that are fit for purpose, efficient, adaptable to change, and satisfying to customers.

In this newest update of our well-received Capability webinar, Jim Dowling, Rich Lynch and Wolfgang Goebl will discuss how to bring the concept to where it belongs - as a tool for strategic management.

You will learn:

  • how to design your Capabilities to optimise flow and adaptability
  • how to assess Capability performance using the attributes effectiveness, efficiency and adaptability
  • how to iterate and socialize to build a coalition for gap closure
  • how to establish Capabilities as the cornerstone of strategic management
