Integrating Strategy Across a Multi-Center Public Innovation Portfolio
(tags)
Institutional Strategy + Governance Integration
(scope)
Multi-year alignment across three parallel centers within a public innovation ecosystem—integrating governance, leadership, and operational systems during a period of scale.
(what we did)
Axle redesigned governance and HR structures, facilitated cross-practice leadership retreats, and conducted phased organizational diagnostics to clarify authority, decision-making pathways, and strategic direction.
• In partnership with research, brand, organizational development, and network strategy specialists, we embedded equity into executive planning, operational frameworks and leadership development, helping to ensure growth did not outpace institutional coherence.
(impact)
Strengthened executive confidence, aligned strategy and operations across centers, and institutionalized decision-making frameworks to support long-term scale.
