Strategic planning
Our process generates decisions that are tangible, measurable, clear and connected to a disciplined deployment process. It is vision-based – it speaks to the entire organization – in real language as opposed to 'jargon'. Our clients' strategies get finished, fast, and compel ownership as they are implemented.
To date, Managerial Design has helped produce and evolve over 100 strategies for organizations ranging from $6 million to $2 billion in revenue. Our process is proven. It includes your entire top team – and over time, it trains your leaders to be strategic thinkers, to delegate and to be better communicators as they deploy strategy into their departments.
There are four phases in our Strategic Process: Situation Review – Scenarios/Alternatives – Decisions – Implementation Planning. We participate as organizers, facilitators, action planners and process designers for implementation.
Compare a strategy influenced by Managerial Design to your current approach:
- It will walk the talk of your vision. Your vision, clearly articulated, is the foundation of what you're trying to achieve. It is both logical and emotive – it is believable and motivational.
- The process used to develop your strategy will be applied with rigor and discipline – it promotes continuity based on proven standards. It can evolve against the same principles and measures every year.
- Your team will come to each strategy session well-prepared and focused. They achieve consensus and leave in agreement.
- Your organization will understand and take ownership of your strategy from the top down. The result is obvious commitment.
- It has been deployed – you can see it and feel it working throughout the organization.
- It will be as clear and relevant tomorrow as it is the day you produce it. The strategy will evolve – your vision will remain its foundation.
