Details

The 7 Lenses provide a practical guide for understanding complex transformations. They are the result of extensive collaboration between colleagues from across government who have first hand experience in leading large scale transformations, supported by external experts.

We have consolidated this expertise into a simple tool to guide your organisation’s transformation journey.

You may also be interested in the 7 Lenses maturity matrix, which expands each lens into 5 levels of maturity.
