A Practical Approach to Strategy Development

Done well, a strategic plan will not only set clear goals and objectives, it will also result in a plan that focuses on what’s important to move your business from where it is to where your want it to be.

This is where we are different.  We understand that agreeing on the vision and goals for a business is not enough.  It is important to also identify the activities required to achieve them.

Our unique Strategy Creation Process has been developed over many years to attain consensus about the future direction of your organisation, as well as creating a strategic plan designed to move your organisation from where is it to where you want it to be.

We work with the key people in your business to identify and agree on its goals and aspirations, as well as how you are going to achieve them.

Our Strategy Creation Framework

People – their knowledge and opinions – are a critical part of the strategy making process.  As a result, we use a highly participative approach to building strategy to ensure that the various different views people have of the future are captured and considered.

The diagram shows a representation of the approach that we use to create and implement business strategy.  This is a fluid process that has been developed to manage all of the aspects of strategy development.  Here, emphasis is placed on idea generation and structuring in a ‘safe’ environment which encourages participation from everyone involved.

We utilise a number of decision support tools, principally causal mapping, to gather, capture and analyse the strategic information gathered through the Strategy Creation process.

Our process can encompass all aspects of strategy making, from initial idea generation through the development of portfolios of strategic options down to the management of individual projects.

Gaining consensus is therefore important both to the strategy development and its subsequent implementation.

“All too often businesses fail to implement the strategy that they devise for many reasons, including a lack of time and resources and also from a fear of dealing with both complex information and differences of opinion.  Ian helped us with these issues by working with our management team to communicate our vision for the business and involve them in developing action plans aimed at delivering our strategic goals.”
“The diversity of our group brought a lot of opinions and views which made the creation of a shared vision for the organisation a challenging process … Ian helped us to generate consensus with in the Board and the direction and goals for the group as a whole – effectively painting a picture of what we want the organisation to look like in five years time … This process helped us to gain consensus about the future of the business.”
“We discovered that we were often arguing about things that we actually agreed on but were looking at the issues from different perspectives.  This process certainly helps clarify the issues and puts them in a context that is understandable and avoids misunderstanding … I had a much clearer view of the business and the issues that we faced after working with Ian.”
