Jul. 2024Toronto, Ontario, CanadaFounder and Principal Consultant | 2024 to Present JT Strategic Consulting works with organizations navigating complex transformation, helping them design the ways of working, governance structures, and process foundations that make change actually stick. Most engagements start with a fundamental question: how does work actually flow here, and what does good look like? From there, we build the standards, structures, and operating model clarity that enables execution, and where it makes sense, bring in AI to automate and scale what is working. Areas of focus: → Ways of working design and process optimization → Governance frameworks and decision-making structures → Operating model design and cross-functional alignment → Enterprise change, adoption, and readiness → AI enablement as the next layer, once the foundation is in place
