The Challenge
Most organisations will have a vision of where they want to. However, the challenge is magnified due to a lack of direction and a clear business strategy on how to get there.
From year to year, the organisation moves into the future doing the same thing they’ve always done, with employees not truly understanding the direction the business is going. Key vision statements, such as ‘we want to expand our product range’ are broad and need to be broken down via the strategy and a roadmap.
What we do
We work with the executive team to understand the vision of the business. We challenge the way they in which they want to achieve something.
To help define the vision and bring more clarity to the purpose, we bring with us an abundance of insight to help shape and steer the vision.
- We work to understand exactly what the business aspires to achieve
- We’ll examine business processes, technology and culture with our maturity assessment framework to understand what and where the problems lie that are stopping the business achieving their vision now
- Identify opportunities for change
- Work on a range of solutions that will enable success.
How we deliver it
For us, a vision without a strategy is essentially an idea that’s not going to further flourish.
We help our clients build a tangible, well-defined plan that will enable the team to align and work together to the same shared vision. We detail everything from costs and timeframes to resources and responsibilities that are required to successfully deliver against the strategy.
We ensure that the wider organisation also understands the vision and strategy, and how their roles contribute to the overall success by updating job descriptions, defining KPIs, and helping the executive team hold their teams accountable for delivering against the KPIs.
The impact it has
95%
of a typical workforce doesn’t understand its organization’s strategyA well-defined strategy is one part. A well-aligned team is the other part. We bring these two aspects together to achieve the vision set out at the start.
A well-defined strategy underpins the success of an organisation and enables teams to work collaboratively towards the same goal. This sets a business on the path to growth by futureproofing the organisation by eliminating old ways of doing things, as well as the unknown.
