Why O-T-A-R™ works

Most talent efforts fail because they stay “HR-adjacent.” OTAR is business-led and execution-aligned. OTAR succeeds because it:

  • ties readiness to strategy and role criticality
  • makes risk visible (not theoretical) 
  • forces clarity on decision rights and accountability 
  • produces a roadmap that leadership teams can actually run

Typical timeline

Most OTAR engagements run 2–4 weeks, depending on organization size and scope.


What Stage 5 needs from you:

  • leadership access for interviews (1:1s)
  • org chart + key role list
  • available performance/talent review inputs (if they exist)

Ready to quantify readiness and reduce leadership risk?

If you suspect leadership readiness is limiting execution (or increasing the future risk of this), OTAR gives you objective clarity and a plan you can act on immediately.
