Strategic planning
Strategic Planning
Ninety per cent of businesses with a growth rate of less than 5% have no documented and communicated strategic plan (MGI My Catalyst).
Clearly a failure to document a plan is holding businesses back from achieving their growth potential. Some of the biggest hesitations we hear are we don’t have time for a strategic plan, our business environment is changing too fast, and most business plans just sit in a draw anyhow. But if you don’t have a plan how do you know what route will get you to where you want to be. Our strategic planning sessions will:
- Identify where your business is now, where it wants to be and the best route to get there
- Guide your executive team to identify strategic priorities and growth opportunities
- Develop a one page plan that identifies key actions and accountability
