The UK's Ringleader Centre
Opens May 2024
Why strategy, capability and culture will determine your success.
Only the businesses adopting an holistic transformation process will survive the AI revolution.
For the survivors, technology will no longer become such a point of difference.
The point of difference between success and failure will lie between those who have recreated their whole culture to be truly agile and performance driven, and those who have not.
It will sit between those who have invested in a flexible technology core and their ongoing speed of adoption, and those who chose not to.Â
The successes will fuse flexible AI powered technology with highly valued, retrained and focused human talent.
To become significantly more responsive, efficient and competitive is a decision of survival, not choice.
Our approach
Generating six positive outcomes
from the six AI impacts
The time to begin your journey is now. We work on minimum one to three year arrangements to work with the whole organisation to identify, develop and implement specific and agreed outcomes.
1 / Strategic DNA change
Organisation
Organisations must become more agile and continuously enterprising.
Successful enterprises will be those that are in perpetual motion, able to respond fast to continual dispruption.Â
We work on implementing an organisational agility and transparency, where new ways of thinking are actively encouraged.Â
We consider how an organisation can be re-orientated from a traditional siloed functional;ity.
We will identify opportunity for cross-functional teams.working through a unified data architecture.
2 / Value chain performance
Value
Most businesses that fail to gain dramatic whole cycle productivity gains through AI are likely to fail.
We work across all an organisation’s facets to identify where latest technologies can improve process and functionality, enhance performance and create opportunity.
This will in turn support performance cased options for digital core renewal.Â
3 / Competitive advantage
Advantage
Clever and dynamic application of AI is, can and will reshape most business sectors.
Could you reshape how your sector or niche operates?
We can and will consider opportunities for novel competitive advantage for your organisation.
Our programme may well include hosting brainstorming sessions at our Ringleader Centre, from the board to all heads of department to the whole 200 team!Â
Â
4 / Enterpise architecture
Digital core
Flexible ecosystems driven by data are critical to the future. Most IT operating models will need to change.Â
Data sets must no longer be disparate but stream through an AI-enabled, secure digital core.
Generative AI requires a fundamentally different enterprise architecture in which data is more fluid, and unstructured , with synthetic data ever more important.
5 / Talent management
Talent
People must be at the heart of change. Leaders must acquire necessary new skills along with the workforce to better drive reinvention across entire value chains and business processes.
We develop and apply continuous learning programmes across all levels of the team.
We recommend new talent and are able to source and monitor new AI talent where deemed necessary,Â
Our Ringleader Centre in Gloucestershire will become integral to transitioning and training teams to this fast changing future,
Â
6 / Secure frameworks
Risk
Given generative AI’s speed of evolution and adoption, risks need to be a focus now to avoid challenges later,
Processes must embed data security and protocols to mitigate risks.
We assess and implement protocols for
- Liability
- Compliance
- Unreliable outputs
- Confidentiality and security,
- Sustainability
- Workforce and software transition Â

Getting to know each other
Successful digital transformation initiatives require a bird’s eye view of an organisation’s objectives and structures but also a clear understanding of all the stakeholders involved.
Helping to shape your future
The impacts of a digital transformation can be as striking as a caterpillar turning into a butterfly.
However, without an integrated strategy, an organisation will likely remain a hungry caterpillar, if a little faster.
We design butterflies.
The Journey that never ends
Digital transformation strategies are now critical to delivering effective processes and productivity, customer and employee experiences, managing business risk and controlling costs.
The Journey that never ends
Technology adoption is the journey of continual renewal.  Budgets should only be appropriated with a complete awareness of your strategic objectives, stakeholder representations, forecast outcomes set against performance indicators, and the technologies available.
People, Strategy & Outcomes
Digital transformation is about people, strategy, and understanding the outcomes that will financially benefit and grow your KPIs.
