Abilities you gain: • Assess fitness for purpose using real KPIs – what
you customer cares about
• Decide for which purposes you will take steps to
increase performance, which you can leave as is,
and which you want to discourage
• Identify, try and measure the impact of
improvement measures
• Gather meaningful, actionable customer feedback
Our goal is to develop the ability of
management and leadership to see risks
and opportunities and to take actions to
do something about it.
Most of the time students leave the class
with work products – decisions, plans,
solutions – that have immediate impact.
All alumni learn concepts and practices
they can continue to apply and adapt to
changing needs based on changing
market demands and changing
organization structure or circumstances.

Training from the authors
Our training of the Fit for Purpose framework is
delivered by the established author and thought
leader for 21st century business management, David J
Anderson and Alexei Zheglov.
Unlike other training companies our training is given
from the authors of the books the training is based
upon. We’ve literally written the book on Fit for
Purpose ‘How modern businesses find, satisfy and
keep customers.’ When you train with us you are
learning from the source of the knowledge that has
been successfully transforming businesses for over a
decade.
The Fit for Purpose framework and training is
complimentary to the Kanban Maturity Model. The
widely adopted playbook for coaches and trainers to
lead evolutionary change & develop organizations
that are Fit for Purpose.
