Invesco Global Consulting Macro four-room business analysis
No team nor its members is likely capable of turning failure into success — either individually or collectively. However, by putting in the proper structure, systems, roles, and responsibilities, there is potential to turn "good to great," to coin a phrase. This step is built to allow prospective teams and team members to "look under the hood" of their prospective partners' businesses with the goal of ensuring that the practices meet their standards of structure and performance.
