What You’ll Gain From the Intervention
Exponential growth in team size across business and technology domains
Higher ownership of strategic initiatives within your GCC
Stronger leadership pipeline ready to take on global mandates
Systems that improve global visibility, delivery, and trust
The Challenge
A global automotive firm chose to build its own GCC in India and hired us as advisors to scale their organisation from 200 to 2,000 people.
Our Approach: FARM in Action
We helped GCC leadership define a clear vision for India aligned with global priorities: scale fast, build in-house capabilities, and reduce outsourcing over three years.
We assessed GCC readiness, delivery quality, and leadership depth to identify areas for investment and change.
We facilitated prioritization of cross-functional initiatives using the “Full Elephant” exercise, strengthening the leadership pipeline and focusing on brand building to attract talent.
We conducted change-readiness workshops, implemented a “three-in-a-box” governance model, and defined dashboards to track scale and delivery progress.
Monthly reviews and half-yearly strategy meets helped refine plans and monitor progress across global and Indian teams.
Beyond FARM
We worked shoulder-to-shoulder with India and global leaders to scale across functions — onboarding 30+ senior leaders, driving brand visibility, and ultimately, enabling the GCC to take full ownership of many software applications and programs.
Cross-functional workshops revealed operational improvements, while structured reviews kept execution focused on outcomes.
