Despite of increasing focus on value creation, many portfolios still underperform. This session flips the lens from "what drives value" to the less discussed but critical question: what quietly destroys it?
• What could go wrong with the 100-day plans?
• Are we investing enough in our commercial and growth capabilities?
• Do you have a misalignment between sponsor and management that erodes into value creation? And what are the early warning signs?
• Do we have the wrong team?
• Why are AI investments not generating the desired outcome?
