The Transformation Management Institute™
Where Transformation Becomes a Profession.
Our mandate is uncompromising:
Transformation must be governable, fair, and continuous.
What We Do
Name the Missing Role
The Certified Transformation Manager™ gives transformation a defined professional home.
Set the Guardrails
The 3E Standard™ protects against drift and keeps commitments visible.
Build the Profession
Credentials establish recognition and protect practitioners who carry the work.
The True Cost of Drift
Over 80% of transformations fail to deliver their intended value.
70%
70% of transformations fail outright not from weak plans, but from drift: commitments that were never secured.
11.4%
11.4% of every dollar is wasted through poor performance, much of it traced to drift that no one recorded or contained.
Drift is not motion;
it is neglect given room to spread.

A transformation management framework that stops drift by aligning feasibility and authority, end to end.
