There’s more to strategy than just being different
Every winning strategy requires 3 essential elements.
1. Adaptation
Every new strategic plan makes assumptions about the future, and about what will and won’t succeed. Some of those will inevitably be wrong. Your execution process must have fast recognition and adaptation built in.
2. Alignment
Align your entire organization and everyone’s strategic priorities around the business model you need to succeed. This will keep your plan fresh and relevant longer, and decrease the cost of implementation.
3. Speed
Accelerating from “plan” to “payoff” as quickly as possible is an important contributor to growth and profitability. But research shows that most organizations can’t implement quickly because their executive teams don’t know how. We do.
All 3 are built into our approach for every strategy assignment. We can help you turn execution speed into a formidable strategic weapon.
