Strategic Planning & Execution

Simply put, strategy communicates to an organization what is important and what is not. Developing a strategy requires hard choices, but making hard choices is how effective leaders stake out clear and deliberate paths forward.

 
 
Making hard choices is the essence of strategy.

Plans don’t fail because they are bad. They fail because leaders are busy running the day-to-day business.

And running the business is different from delivering the strategy.

Only 15% of leadership teams spend more than 1 hour per month discussing strategy.

– Norton & Kaplan Balanced Score

Only 2% of leaders are confident they will achieve 80-100% of their strategic objectives.
