Role-Readiness Proof / Capstone
Act as strategy and operations lead for a real or simulated business unit. Write a concise strategy kernel with explicit choices and a stop-doing list; build 12-month priorities, budget/headcount/resource allocation and a business case; define a KPI tree and weekly/monthly business-review cadence with dashboard; size one GTM/customer initiative; run a cross-functional decision with stakeholder map and RACI; prepare an executive memo and 10-minute review; create a talent/org-health plan; redesign one workflow for AI with adoption and governance measures; then present a quarterly reallocation decision based on evidence.
Proof Rubric
- Separate strategy from planning
- show coherent choices and resource/financial logic
- turn KPIs into operating decisions
- lead cross-functional execution and influence senior stakeholders
- demonstrate customer/GTM judgment, talent and organizational-health leadership
- quantify business outcomes and risks
- and treat AI transformation as operating-model change with adoption, governance and explicit measures rather than a technology demo
