Global Structuring – Project Leader The existing global structure of the client is complex and decentralized, with significant variations in governance, reporting, and processes across different regions and business units. The lack of consistency in operations and service delivery has resulted in inefficiencies, redundancies, and suboptimal performance in several areas. The strategic objectives require a more unified and coordinated approach to global operations, with a greater focus on leveraging global resources and expertise to deliver value to clients. We attempted to establish a new global structure that is centralized for leveraging the global expertise and at the same time offer sufficient decentralization to enhance the entrepreneurial freedom to the regions and offices to ensure the alignment with the firm's strategic objectives. This new structure should be designed to optimize efficiency, enhance consistency, and improve collaboration across different regions and business units. My role while leading the project was to obtain the objectives and ensure all the objectives listed out were met in the recommendations provided as well as to get alignment with the different teams involved in the project.
