For Builders

Those who design the future they desire. Put in the effort to make it real. Help others see what's possible. Then get to work building it.

That's where we come in. Strategic clarity for leaders navigating change. Turning complexity into executable strategy.

The Execution Cycle

70% of Transformations Fail. Not From Bad Strategy.

They fail because organizations can't execute. The Execution Cycle is how we fix that—six phases that turn strategic intent into sustained results. This is the foundation for every transformation, including AI.

We help you synthesize complexity into a clear direction. Not vague mission statements, but a vivid picture of success that everyone can understand and rally around. Vision that translates into action.

  • Clarity on what success actually looks like
  • Strategic direction that cuts through complexity
  • Future-state definition that people can visualize
  • Shared understanding across leadership

We build the logical structure that turns vision into sequenced action. Gap analysis, dependency mapping, and prioritization that accounts for reality—not just what should happen, but what actually can.

  • Strategy broken into coherent structure
  • Gap analysis between current and future state
  • Sequencing that respects dependencies
  • Prioritization based on impact and feasibility

We create shared understanding across stakeholders. Not just communication, but genuine alignment—where people understand not just what to do, but why it matters and how their piece connects to the whole.

  • Stakeholder engagement that builds real buy-in
  • Strategy translation from boardroom to front line
  • Cross-functional coordination by design
  • Commitment that survives the first fire drill

We build the systems that maintain pace: tracking progress, catching problems early, course-correcting before small issues become big ones. The operational cadence that keeps execution on track.

  • Progress tracking that surfaces truth
  • Early warning systems for drift
  • Course-correction mechanisms that work
  • Accountability without micromanagement

We design the practices that extract real learning from experience. Not blame sessions or box-checking retrospectives, but honest assessment of what worked, what didn't, and why.

  • Objective outcome assessment
  • Root cause analysis without defensiveness
  • Pattern recognition across initiatives
  • Learning that informs future decisions

We ensure lessons actually change behavior. Systems updates, process modifications, and behavioral shifts that embed learning into how the organization operates. Continuous improvement that actually improves.

  • Lessons translated into system changes
  • Process modifications that stick
  • Behavioral change that persists
  • Organizational learning that compounds

He's Run the Operations You're Running

Builder. For builders.

John Vyhlidal has run the operations you're running. Air Force officer, Big 4 consultant (CISA), Nike executive, business owner. 20 years of building systems that turn strategy into results while everyone else was still arguing about the plan.

He's led process optimization across manufacturing, professional services, and technology. He's been the guy they called when a transformation was stuck, inherited teams that were underwater, and delivered what he said he would deliver.

Now John bridges the gap between Silicon Valley speed and Enterprise Control. Having audited complex systems for Fortune 500s, he helps organizations navigate what he calls the "March of 9s": transitioning AI from experimental pilots to auditable, production-grade assets. He specializes in AI-specific internal controls and pragmatic governance, helping leaders ensure their AI is as reliable as their general ledger.

If you need someone who understands both the boardroom and the server room, someone who can design strategy and ensure it gets executed, John's ready to talk.

You Can't Transform What You Can't Execute

Every transformation—digital, AI, operational—depends on your ability to turn strategy into results. The Execution Index measures that capability.

Whether you're adopting AI, redesigning processes, or driving any organizational change, execution capability is the multiplier that determines success or failure.
