Are you a senior IT professional tasked with managing the future technology in your organisation and getting frustrated by mixed business priorities and requirements?

What you need, as a discovery starter, is a Target Operating Model or TOM.

A TOM is a way of showing the future state of the organisation from all its perspectives.

It shows how your strategy connects to the day-to-day operations of serving customers and clients through its processes, people and technology.

Using an approach of describing “pictures” or views, aimed at particular stakeholders with their varying needs and interests, it helps them tell you what technological capabilities you need to provide to your business colleagues to enable the organisation to deliver its goals and its ultimate success.

The creation of a TOM is a cross functional activity where you all work together to create a meaningful practical communication of where the firm is going. It shows to all sorts of people, from leaders to the newest recruit, what the strategy means and what the future is going to look like in real “down to earth” ways that relate to people roles and tasks.

Our TOM training courses and facilitated workshops helps create the skills to do this task well, creating a team spirit across organisational boundaries delivering a common goal of a well-defined future and successful strategy.

Our training programme is facilitated by David Winders and Barry Eustance.

David specialises in training, consulting, and mentoring in the creation and understanding of Operating Models and Business Architecture, training in business design, and improving business architecture capability in business change teams.

He also provides training in business design and business architecture and has delivered in this space for two decades.

He has also been a contributor to core references on business architecture.

David’s previous clients include AXA Life, AXA Insurance, DVLA, Friends Life, Skandia, Bank of Ireland Finance, Iveco Finance, LV, National Australia Bank Europe, Business Analyst Solutions, Barclaycard, Royal Bank of Canada, MTN Nigeria, YBS, TFL, Publicis Sapient, ITSM and Serco and major UK government organisations.

So, if you need to communicate a strategy clearly and need to get your people pulling in one direction, you need a TOM.

We’ll be running our three-day, residential TOM course from Q4 of 2024 at the outstanding training facility at New Place Country House & Hotel in Hampshire (previously an IBM training centre).
