Strategy & Transformation, delivered with clarity and pace
Outsized Teams help organisations move from intent to execution – shaping strategic direction, designing fit-for-purpose operating models and delivering transformation outcomes that stick. Our engagements are led by senior practitioners with real consulting and in-house experience, so you get people who understand how organisations actually work. That means clarity, pace and measurable impact grounded in practical, real-world delivery.
Strategy & Enterprise Transformation, designed to unlock performance
Most organisations don’t fail because of strategy; they fail in the gap between intent and execution. We close that gap by ensuring your strategic design is clear, compelling and measurable, enabled by the practical operating model, governance and delivery disciplines needed to make change happen. Our teams translate strategy into real work, align leaders on what must shift, and stay hands-on through implementation to ensure every initiative delivers measurable impact, faster to achieve sustainable outcomes.
Strategic Planning
Develop clear, actionable strategies that drive growth and competitive advantage. Our teams combine market analysis, stakeholder engagement, and strategic frameworks to co-design clear and compelling strategies and integrated plans that your organisation can understand, align around and execute, rather than sit on a shelf.
Operating Model Design
Design the system that serves as the blueprint to realise your strategy. We build operating models that define how work needs to get done — the structure, roles, decision pathways, processes, technology and ways of working your organisation needs to enable scalable growth and efficient delivery. This strengthens decision-making, reduces operational risk and ensures work flows efficiently end to end.
Transformation Programs
Execute complex change at pace. Our teams lead end-to-end transformation delivery, from design through implementation and embedding, while strengthening your internal capability to sustain it. We bring the project and change disciplines needed to deliver with confidence, ensuring outcomes and intended value is realised and real knowledge transfer, not just plans and project trackers.
Strategic Performance Management
Design a performance system that turns strategy into realised value. We help organisations define what success actually looks like, identify the value at stake and build the goals, measures and review rhythms needed to track progress and course-correct. Whether through KPI's, OKRs or broader performance frameworks, we create a system that drives accountability, sharpens focus and gives leaders real visibility of whether strategic work is delivering the value intended.
Strategic & Enterprise Transformation at Outsized Teams is guided by real-world expertise
Rebecca Reti
Outsized Capability Lead – Strategy & Transformation
- Course-corrected a complex $100M+ enterprise systems transformation, establishing disciplined program governance, clearer decision rights, stronger project and change capabilities, and a benefits framework that ensured value was tracked and realised.
- Saved $15M by rationalising the project portfolio, strengthening strategic alignment, and removing low-value work that wasn’t contributing to organisational goals.
- Led strategy-to-execution maturity assessments for large government and corporate firms, identifying systemic gaps, simplifying portfolio structures, and designing execution management systems that improved prioritisation, delivery capability and strategic alignment.
- Designed a 5-year enterprise strategy and operating model, translating this into an integrated business plan resulting in higher engagement, faster delivery, and stronger cross-functional collaboration.
Experience from:
Strategy & Enterprise Transformation consulting in action
Building a fit-for-purpose engine for complex transformation
A professional services firm needed to mature its transformation capability to safely deliver a growing portfolio of complex corporate services change initiatives.
Challenge:
The organisation had never undertaken a transformation at this scale. Delivery practices
were fragmented, governance was inconsistent, and decision-making was unclear across multiple SaaS and corporate services projects. The immature execution model was creating delivery risk, poor
design choices and fatigue in both project and business teams.
Solution:
Rebecca led a multi-disciplinary consulting team to design and apply a delivery maturity improvement program. This included assessing and uplifting the execution operating model using global
frameworks (P3O, benefits realisation and change maturity models), reset governance and prioritisation, deep-diving into key projects to remediate and reset, coaching and mentoring delivery staff, and assessing PMO, project and change capabilities.
Impact:
The firm strengthened enterprise delivery governance and built internal capability to manage large-scale transformation more effectively. Early results included clearer decision pathways, improved collaboration across functions and more empowered, skilled delivery teams. The work established an enduring foundation for consistent, scalable change execution.
Your Outsized advantage: Built for fixed-scope execution – where traditional consulting models aren’t built to flex
We’re not here to replace your Big 4 or MBB relationships – we complement them. Large consulting firms excel at enterprise-wide transformations and long-term strategic programmes. But for fixed-scope projects often in the AUD 200k–2m range, their model isn’t designed for speed or agility. That’s exactly where Outsized Teams deliver – combining structure, accountability, and senior delivery talent without the overhead.
When to use Outsized
Teams
• You need a full delivery team built around a defined project scope
• The work requires multi-disciplinary collaboration and leadership
• You want structured governance, reporting, and accountability
• You’re focused on measurable outcomes, not just hours worked
• You prefer turnkey delivery without the overhead of large firms
When to use Outsized Talent on Demand
• You need specialist expertise to plug short-term skill gaps
• You’re building internal capability and managing delivery yourself
• The project is individual-contributor-led, not team-based
• You want maximum flexibility to scale resources up or down
• You’re comfortable owning coordination, delivery, and outcomes
“We used an MBB firm for our 3-year transformation strategy and Outsized Teams for focused execution work where their model makes more sense – like our 12-week credit operations redesign. Different tools for different jobs.”
