GCC is not a standalone utopia.
It’s the coming together of people, process, and governance — tethered in a clear operating model. And without change management, even the best-architected GCC will crumble from within.
Here’s what we see in failed setups:
→ Competitors gain ground while you’re stuck in internal debates
→ Talent resists, then exits
→ Operations stutter and CXOs scramble
→ Stakeholders lose faith — and funding follows
→ Institutional knowledge evaporates
→ Brand takes hits that PR can’t fix
Reality vs. Rhetoric gap is HUGE in this space.
If you think trends, webinars, and research reports will prepare your enterprise for GCC transformation — you’re wrong. Change management is the new cost of entry.
HEX Advisory Group specializes in hands-on GCC execution with referenceable CXO clients, senior sourcing practitioners like Alison Armstrong, MSM MIS who helped us put together this POV from her experience from her client engagements over the years.
