About Venice Gaspard

I operate at the intersection of C-suite vision and enterprise-wide execution. As a Strategic Architect and Executive Advisor, I specialize in navigating high-velocity, matrixed environments to dismantle silos and translate board-level priorities into measurable results.In my current capacity at RTX, I serve as a trusted advisor to the Enterprise Services Leadership Team (ESLT). I am responsible for orchestrating the executive reporting frameworks and strategic rhythms (cadence) that ensure our multi-year roadmaps deliver quantifiable organizational maturity. My approach is built on \"learning loudly\"—converting operational data into strategic pivots that drive relentless enterprise improvement.While my foundation is built on Continuous Improvement (CORE) and Lean methodologies, I apply these tools at the enterprise level to design operating models that sustain strategic execution amid complex corporate transitions.Executive Advisory & Strategy Success Markers:• Executive Cadence & Governance: Architected the reporting frameworks and rhythms used to track goal alignment across all business domains, serving as the primary bridge to the ESLT for strategic funding and performance insights.• M&A & Divestiture Resilience: Orchestrated critical business spin-off activities at UTC during the stand-up of two independent Fortune 500 companies (Carrier & Otis), maintaining strategic continuity for employees.• Strategic Finance Harmonization: Developed joint execution models between Strategy, Finance, and the PMO to ensure enterprise objectives are synchronized with strategic funding cycles.• Special Initiative Leadership: Designed the \"CORE Leadership Week\" operating model, an executive-level forum used to accelerate cross-functional decision-making and break down organizational silos.Strategic Philosophy: I operate under a \"Win or Learn\" mindset. In complex, enterprise-wide transformations, I believe in \"learning loudly\" from every outcome. This transparency ensures that we don’t just endure organizational shifts—we use them as data points to drive relentless improvement and strategic resilience.Core Expertise: Chief of Staff Operations | Executive Advisory | Strategy Execution | Operating Model Design | M&A Resilience | Hoshin Kanri (Goal Alignment)| Performance Insights | Change Leadership (ADKAR)
