Leadership Accelerated Capability Enhancement
L A C E
With over 70% of transformations failing due to leadership and culture gaps, the LACE Framework bridges this divide by aligning leadership, strategy, and culture - accelerating capability, unlocking performance, and driving sustainable transformation.
Business transformation remains a critical yet challenging priority for organizations worldwide.
According to McKinsey, 70% of transformation efforts fail, with primary causes including ineffective leadership, cultural resistance, unclear objectives, and insufficient resources.
Deloitte highlights that only 26% of transformation initiatives result in meaningful performance improvement and long-term impact. Similarly, research by the Harvard Business Review reveals that fewer than 30% of transformation projects succeed, often due to strategic misalignment and leadership shortcomings.
In response to these challenges, the LACE Framework (Leadership Accelerated Capability Enhancement) offers a comprehensive and integrated approach to transformation.
It emphasizes the synergy between leadership effectiveness, organizational alignment, cultural readiness, and capability building - key enablers of successful and sustainable change.
By addressing transformation holistically, LACE equips organizations to navigate complexity, unlock performance, and accelerate their journey toward lasting impact.
The 9 Fraction model of L A C E
Our LACE Framework (Leadership Accelerated Capability Enhancement) integrates nine critical services that power holistic, end-to-end business transformation.
Search
Purpose over profile
We prioritize alignment over experience. Rather than relying solely on past roles, PGC’s approach places 60% weight on cultural fit and values alignment. This ensures leaders not only perform but integrate into the organization's purpose and momentum. Whether it's CXO hiring, succession planning, or leadership bench building, we help you find leaders who belong.
Assessment
Evidence-Based and Multi-Dimensional
Hiring mistakes are costly. PGC’s assessments combine structured interviews, psychometrics, EI diagnostics, and immersive simulations to ensure robust evaluation. This science-backed, multi-layered approach identifies leaders who are both capable and context-ready, reducing the risk of failure and increasing long-term performance.
Transition
Accelerating Integration and Impact
The first 18 months are critical. Using our LACE framework, we coach new leaders through four key levers: integration, strategic alignment, cultural immersion, and execution readiness. This helps leaders build trust fast, align with goals, and deliver results sooner.
Vision
Building a Shared North Star
A shared vision is the anchor for transformation. We guide leadership teams to co-create a compelling vision that aligns decisions, unites direction, and energizes people. This emotional and strategic clarity helps organizations lead with purpose through change.
Development
Development
From Intention to Execution
Vision needs strategy to succeed. We help translate ambition into action through strategic facilitation that connects market trends, customer needs, and internal capabilities. The result is an executable roadmap that’s bold, cohesive, and grounded in operational reality.
Alignment
Development
Enabling Cohesive Action
Strategy fails without alignment. We bring leadership teams together through facilitation, diagnostics, and values-based alignment to ensure everyone is unified in mindset, accountable in execution, and committed to shared outcomes. This turns intent into unified leadership action.
