01 · Problem
A Fortune-500 parent had approved a 14-person India GCC with a 12-month AI charter. Three months in, leadership disagreed on whether the charter was to prove velocity, prove ROI, or prove a staffing model. Parent-company CTO was two quarters from pulling the plug.
02 · Approach
One-day Prism workshop with CEO, CTO, Head of Product, and parent CTO remote. Charter re-written live. Three-month Helm retainer to defend the rewrite against scope drift and own the monthly parent-memo.
03 · Outcome
Charter renewed for year two with a 30% budget increase. Renewal memo used the exact three-question framework from our GCC playbook. Team headcount grew from 14 to 22 over the next six months without a single charter re-write.
“We were two quarters from being shut down. The Prism day rewrote the story. The Helm retainer made sure we didn't forget it.”
