Transforming While Transacting: Transformation enablers of success

Dounia Senawi, a principal in the Deloitte Consulting practice, reveals top three transformation enablers of success

In today’s corporate M&A landscape, business and operational transformation doesn’t just happen. It is a deliberate and rigorous undertaking that needs diligent preparation and alignment. Companies that actively transform while transacting can transform their business, their operations, and their future. But as with any reaction, transformation can successfully happen only with the right catalyst.

These catalysts are the enablers of success. They are almost as numerous as the questions that surround transformation in aggregate. In this episode, Deloitte Consulting Principal Dounia Senawi and our host, Raed Masoud, discuss a few of these catalysts that rise to the top. Senawi shares firsthand examples of how these enablers have created tangible value in real-world case studies.

Transformations and transactions alone are complex undertakings, and doing both at the same time can be daunting for clients. However, if done right, planning and executing a transformation while transacting can be a force multiplier and really make both efforts more effective. … Success factors for me that rise to the top are early identification and planning, alignment with existing capabilities, and properly incentivizing the organization throughout the transformation.
