The challenge
Looking beyond the initial request.
Senior management had limited time to assess heads of function, project leaders and technical managers individually. Promotions, succession, development and retention decisions required a structured evidence base.
This case is anonymized and describes a specific engagement, including its original operating context. It should not be interpreted as a guarantee of similar results in another organization.

How the team approached the challenge.

Decision support
