Focused 60–90 day engagements that target your highest-priority capability gap with measurable, KPI-driven outcomes. Not another program. A capability system built into how your organization works.
Most organizations have run programs. Agile transformations. Leadership academies. OKR rollouts. AI tool deployments. They have the certifications, the dashboards, the completion rates. What they often do not have is durable change in how work actually gets done, how decisions actually get made, or how their people actually perform under pressure.
A Capability Accelerator is not a program. It is a focused, time-boxed engagement designed to build one high-priority capability domain into the operational fabric of your organization — with behavioral measurement, embedded coaching, and outcome accountability from day one.
In 60–90 days, we target the specific gap your Capability Readiness Review identified, embed the right architecture, and leave your organization with a system — not a slide deck.
Each Accelerator targets one of the five domains of the Helix Capability Model™. Every engagement is scoped to your specific organizational context — not a generic curriculum delivered the same way to every client.
Close the gap between what leadership decides and what teams deliver.
Most organizations have a strategy. Few have the architectural systems that translate that strategy into daily decisions and measurable team behavior. This Accelerator designs the governance structures, portfolio alignment mechanisms, and execution accountability systems that make strategy visible — and deliverable — at every level of the organization.
What it delivers
Build the behavioral infrastructure that makes leadership development stick.
Leadership training alone does not produce leadership behavior. This Accelerator builds the accountability infrastructure — peer observation, 360 feedback, behavioral measurement at 30/60/90 days, and explicit consequence structures — that translates learning into visible change in how leaders lead. We do not run another workshop. We build the system that makes workshops matter.
What it delivers
Replace activity metrics with a performance system that drives decisions.
If your leadership meetings spend more time debating data accuracy than making decisions, you do not have a data problem — you have a performance system problem. This Accelerator redesigns the measurement infrastructure so that KPIs, OKRs, and governance mechanisms serve decisions rather than report activity. We build the decision cadence, accountability architecture, and outcome measurement system that turns data into action.
What it delivers
Build learning infrastructure that transfers to how work actually gets done.
Completion rates are not capability. Organizations with high-performing L&D functions share one characteristic: their learning is inseparable from the doing. This Accelerator redesigns your learning architecture around behavioral transfer — cohort-based projects, peer coaching, observable performance moments, and measurement systems that track skill application in real work, not course completion in a platform.
What it delivers
Move from AI deployment to AI capability — where tools actually influence decisions.
AI Deployment Theater is the most expensive form of Capability Theater in the enterprise today. High adoption rates, significant license spend, and tools that influence almost no actual decisions. This Accelerator conducts a human-in-the-loop audit of where AI tools are — and are not — influencing outcomes, then builds the human readiness, workflow integration, decision rights, and trust infrastructure that turns AI tools into AI capability.
What it delivers
Week 1–2
We open every Accelerator with a deep diagnostic of the target domain. Not a survey — a structured assessment mapping current state, identifying Capability Theater patterns, and establishing the baseline metrics we will move against over the engagement. You cannot improve what you have not measured precisely.
Week 2–4
We co-design the capability system with your team — not for your team. Governance structures, accountability frameworks, measurement systems, learning architectures, or AI integration designs are built to fit your organizational context. No templates copied from another client.
Week 4–10
Implementation happens inside your actual work — not in a training room or a separate workstream. We embed alongside your teams, running behavioral measurement at 30 and 60 days, coaching leaders through the accountability moments that most programs avoid, and adjusting the system based on what the data shows.
Week 10–13
The engagement closes with a formal outcome review against the baseline metrics established in Week 1. We document what was built, what moved, and what to watch. The system belongs to your organization — we build your internal capability to sustain it, not dependency on us to run it.
An Accelerator is the right fit when you have a clearly identified capability gap and the organizational readiness to act on it in a focused timeframe.
The Review identifies which domain to target. The Accelerator is the focused intervention in that domain.
If multiple domains need work simultaneously, an Enterprise Program may be a better fit.
Accelerators are embedded, not delivered from outside. They require active organizational participation.
If the end state is a report or a slide deck, this is not the right engagement. Accelerators are measured by outcomes.
Accelerators are focused engagements, not scale programs. The ADAPT Learning Paths serve large-scale practitioner enablement.
"The ADAPT program has been a game changer for our org. By focusing on outcomes and really digging in to encourage experimentation, we've been able to create an environment where employees take ownership of their individual and shared transformation journey. Unlike traditional frameworks, we're not just doing different things — we're thinking differently, and the results speak for themselves."
Dorothy Aubrey · Kobumura LLCReal outcomes from real organizations. Not completion rates — capability that stayed.
"I attended the ADAPT sessions while working as an Agile Transformation Coach at Wells Fargo Bank. The sessions were informative and are an eye opening on how to run a successful Agile Transformation."
