Interview programme overview

Most business services leaders trust that their operation is producing results. Few can say with confidence where work is right now, who is doing what, or where things break down between teams.

Through interviews with senior leaders across the sector, we are building a cross-sector picture of operational visibility: where leaders have line of sight, where the blind spots are and what those blind spots cost.

Participants receive a personalised one-page write-up of their insights and gain recognition among senior business services leaders.

Key areas of exploration include:

  • Where leaders have visibility across their operations and where the blind spots are
  • How work moves through teams and where it breaks down
  • The operational foundations needed before technology delivers consistent results
  • What has been hardest to measure when proving operational value
  • What leaders would advise a peer to get right first

Interview questions

1

How much of what happens inside your operation can you actually track from request to completion today?

2

When you look across your service operations today, what can you actually see, and where are the blind spots?

3

How does work actually arrive and move through your teams today, and where does it break down?

4

What operational foundations have you had to put in place, or wish you had put in place, before technology could deliver consistent results?

5

What has been the hardest thing to measure when it comes to the value your operations are delivering?

6

How does work move between different people and teams, and where does coordination break down?

7

Where is the biggest gap between how you think your operation runs and how it actually runs day to day?

8

If you were advising a peer who is about to start this journey, what would you tell them to get right first?

Enate is a process orchestration platform founded in 2012 by Kit Cox, serving business services organisations across 60 countries from delivery centres in the UK, North America and India. The platform gives service operations teams full visibility into how work moves through their organisation, connecting people, processes and technology so leaders can see where work is, who is doing it and where things get stuck.

Enate works with mid-sized to large organisations managing complex, high-volume service delivery across multiple teams and systems.

This research reflects Enate's genuine interest in understanding how senior leaders across the sector experience the gap between what they can see inside their operations and what remains hidden.
