Company OS
Synozur works in concert with your leadership team to develop new business strategies and management frameworks to optimize and elevate your effectiveness. We help our customers implement new Company Operating Systems (COS) and detailed adoption strategies tailored to their specific organizational and cultural needs.
A Framework to Drive Business Clarity and Focus
Our approach involves defining and refining your company’s foundations - mission, purpose, values, and goals. Strategy and planning are separate components. We facilitate leadership decisions that form your strategy and assist with the annual planning required to implement them.
The Company Operating System
How best to move forward? A Company Operating System (CoS) can help.
A Company Operating System is a framework that creates and maintains clarity and focus on your company's priorities. It includes foundational building blocks, strategy, plans, goals, and measures across the organization. Just like computers, the COS is the "operating system" for your business, accelerating business performance and results.
The Synozur Approach
Our CoS approach includes four components:
Business Foundation: This includes the core values, purpose, vision, mission, and targets of the company. It sets the groundwork for all other components and ensures that everyone in the organization is aligned with the company's fundamental principles.
Strategy: Strategy involves making integrated choices that position the company to win in its chosen market. It differentiates between strategic and operational aspects, focusing on transformative and forward-looking objectives.
Annual Plan: The annual plan consists of setting yearly objectives, targets, and quarterly rocks (incremental goals). Workshops are often used to create these components, ensuring that the company stays on track to achieve its long-term goals.
Focus Rhythm: This component includes a scorecard, annual planning, quarterly planning, and weekly focus meetings. It ensures that the company maintains a regular rhythm of reviewing and adjusting its priorities and performance.
Our Methodologies
Interviews
Conduct detailed interviews with key stakeholders to understand their needs, challenges, and expectations. This helps in gathering valuable insights and setting the foundation for a tailored operating system.
Current State Assessment
Evaluate the current state of the organization using a management maturity model. This assessment identifies areas for improvement and acceleration, providing a clear picture of the organization's strengths and weaknesses.
Maturity Models
Orion is Synozur’s AI‑powered assessment platform that turns maturity models into practical, executive‑ready diagnostics of a company’s management framework and strategy readiness. Leaders take a guided assessment, receive a quantified Maturity Score across core dimensions (strategy, people, process, data, governance, culture), and immediately get tailored roadmaps, benchmarking, and a shareable PDF—grounded in Synozur research.
At Synozur, we go beyond static maturity models by combining Orion’s AI-powered diagnostics with leadership interviews that uncover context, nuance, and organizational dynamics. While Orion provides a fast, quantified baseline across dimensions like strategy, governance, and culture, our consulting team conducts structured conversations with executives to validate assumptions, explore decision-making patterns, and identify hidden blockers. The result: a tailored roadmap that moves leadership from insight to action with confidence.
Workshops
Organize workshops to collaboratively develop the operating system. These engaging, delightful sessions involve various departments and ensure that the system is designed with input from all relevant parties, fostering a sense of ownership and alignment.
Human-Centric Approach
Focus on a human-centric approach by considering the needs and experiences of the employees. This ensures that the operating system is user-friendly and supports the well-being and productivity of the workforce.
Design
Develop a clear vision and plan for current and incoming leaders to track business performance against well-defined measures. This can also include helping you choose the appropriate software and tools to support your Company OS – it could be Viva Goals, a 3rd party solution, a spreadsheet, or even a printed notebook based on your needs and culture.
Operate and Optimize
Provide ongoing mentoring and support to the leadership team and their direct reports. This includes continuous improvement efforts to ensure the effective operation of the company operating system.
Outcome-Based Results
Define clear, outcome-based results to measure the success of the operating system. This involves setting specific, measurable goals that align with the company's strategic objectives.

Upgrading Your Company Operating System (2026): From Ambition to Execution
The 2026 edition of Upgrading Your Company Operating System explains why strategy alone isn’t enough—and how durable execution requires a system. This update introduces ambitions as long term north stars, reframes annual goals as executable objectives, and shows how a clear cascade from ambition to action prevents drift. It also introduces Vega, an AI augmented Company OS built to make strategy operational.
When Founders Stop Dreaming—and What It Costs Their Companies
Founders often get trapped in quarterly targets and lose sight of the decade they set out to build. Real momentum comes from balancing three horizons: long term ambition, annual goals, and quarterly execution. When leaders reconnect with their original vision and translate it into this year’s priorities, the quarter stops driving the company—and starts delivering the future. Vega helps operationalize this structure, but the clarity starts with leaders.
