Case Study: Navigating Challenges in Unleashing Project Autonomy at GlobalTech

Innovations Introduction: 

GlobalTech Innovations, a prominent player in the technology industry, embarked on a strategic initiative to transition from a traditional functional structure to a projectized organizational model.
