Business Transformation

What is business transformation?

Business Transformation is the creation and execution of a strategy which produces a marked performance improvement, expansion or change in a business, function or process. A business transformation programme is likely to contain several change management projects, acting cohesively to deliver a suite of often strategic, long-term benefits.

The most important transformation ingredient? People!

At Claverton we believe that great people make for great transformation – the old saying ‘people make projects’ is never truer than when large transformations are taking place. The significant changes that transformations can create affect stakeholders, customers, suppliers and staff, all of whom need careful management and socialisation. The most successful transformations happen where a strong blend of like-minded team members, comprised of highly-skilled, socially aware individuals come together behind common goals. The Claverton Business Transformation Group intimately understands how to build successful transformation teams and the dynamics of change, putting us in a unique position to help you hire the right people and create the right team blend.
