and who advocate for the alignment of teams and functions in any business change programme.
Specifically at Kramp, this alignment is between Jens’ business team and Olivier’ s technology function. Both have seen this way of working evolve over their careers.“ What’ s really changed, particularly in recent years, is that if you want to be effective and have true impact within a business you must understand each other,” says Jens.“ Working in this way is a partnership, so beyond just listening and collaborating business and technology have to establish, and work towards, a common goal or objective and know how each function contributes to the business. That’ s what we’ re aiming for at Kramp.”
To do so, Jens and Olivier have pioneered their‘ two in a box’ model, in which they jointly lead key initiatives, bring real and meaningful collaboration and alignment to transformation, and strive to set an example for the rest of the company. technologymagazine. com 125
