Building AI Assurance Capability: Operating Model, People & Culture with Dawgen Global

December 18, 2025by Dr Dawkins Brown

Most organisations now accept that AI needs governance and assurance, not just experimentation.

The DEVD Pattern Library: A Board-Ready Guide to the Nine Business Model Patterns and When to Use Them

December 18, 2025by Dr Dawkins Brown

Business model patterns are attractive because they simplify complexity. They provide recognized archetypes—proven “ways of making money”—that organizations can adapt rather than inventing from scratch. Yet patterns are also risky. When applied without discipline, they become slogans (“we should become a platform”), unfunded capability demands, or monetization experiments that erode trust, margins, and cash...

DEVD in Action: A Practical Case Scenario in Food Manufacturing and Distribution Using the Nine Business Model Patterns

December 18, 2025by Dr Dawkins Brown

Frameworks only earn trust when they can be applied to real enterprise decisions under real constraints—margin pressure, working capital strain, customer concentration, execution risk, and governance scrutiny.

From Thought Leadership to Enterprise Capability: Institutionalizing DEVD Across Strategy, Performance, and Governance

December 17, 2025by Dr Dawkins Brown

DEVD in Review: Building Enterprise Value Through Disciplined Business Model Design

December 17, 2025by Dr Dawkins Brown

Business model innovation has become a defining requirement of modern leadership. Markets evolve rapidly, customer expectations shift, regulatory scrutiny increases, and technology compresses competitive advantage. In this environment, organizations can no longer rely on incremental improvement alone. They must periodically re-examine and redesign the logic of how they create, deliver, and capture value. But there...

The DEVD Implementation Playbook: The Questions Executives and Boards Should Ask Before Scaling

December 17, 2025by Dr Dawkins Brown

Most organizations do not fail because they lack ambition. They fail because they scale ambition faster than they scale evidence, capability, and controls. Business model reinvention is now a permanent feature of modern commerce. Whether the organization is adopting usage-based pricing, building platform capability, partnering through open business models, developing long-tail offerings, or introducing no-frills...

Reason for Audit delays #10: Late Issue Escalation—How to Spot High-Risk Items Early and Resolve Them Before They Become Audit Blockers

December 16, 2025by Dr Dawkins Brown

Most audits do not fail because the finance team lacks competence. They fail because issues are escalated too late. In Jamaica and across the wider Caribbean, audit timelines often slip in the final stretch—not because fieldwork is incomplete, but because one or two unresolved topics become “blockers” at the partner review stage. By then, the...
