Organizational Strategy

Industry dynamics are in constant motion and companies that are unable to adapt to the rapidly changing market will ultimately be left behind. Putnam has witnessed many organizational structures become misaligned with their strategic goals. These inefficiencies delay decisions, muddle objectives and slow profitable growth.

At Putnam, we combine organizational sensitivity with research-based due diligence to provide valuable insight to the following kinds of questions:

  • What external growth opportunities should we pursue?
  • How can we better align R&D operations with product strategies?
  • Where should we consider acquisitions versus internal initiatives?
  • How can we better manage alliances and overcome conflict?
  • How do we make our company the most attractive for licensing deals?

To bridge the gap between operational capability and strategic goals, we employ a number of services:

  • Acquisition assessment and due diligence
  • In-licensing and out-licensing evaluation
  • Strategic reorganization and change management
  • Operations improvement support
  • Alliance launch, management and restructuring

These activities result in information, insights, strategies and implementation steps to help organizations adapt to change, build on strengths and optimize value.
