Global Software Developer

Client:

Global Software Developer

Problem:

New CEO was hired to put the company in the black. His strategies were sound, but were difficult to implement quickly because they required the focus and commitment of an extremely scattered workforce, each location operating its own fiefdom.

Solution:

ELG helped them identify meaningful and measurable results, align accountabilities to those results all the way down the company, and then establish monthly review and refresh cycle that imbedded focused performance throughout the company.

Results:

The new system had been in place only months before aggressive quarterly corporate goals, including revenue and EBITA, were being surpassed. Employees reported a heightened sense of clarity and empowerment. Within 18 months, the company had acquired its nearest competitor for cash. The CEO quipped, “I’ll take half the credit for my strategies, and give you half the credit for your approach.”
