Our approach

Strategic plans fail in implementation, not in the writing. We analyze the internal and external challenges your organization faces, facilitate leadership to a small number of priorities, build an action plan with owners and measures, and stay through implementation to keep it on track.

Strategy development

A plan leadership owns.

  • Environmental analysis: Analysis of internal capacity and the external forces, from funding to policy to technology, that shape the organization.
  • Leadership facilitation: Facilitated sessions that converge on priorities rather than lists.
  • Strategic plan: Goals, objectives, and measures in a document short enough to be used.
  • Stakeholder engagement: Engagement of staff, partners, and governing bodies so the plan has support when implementation starts.

Implementation

Where most plans stop, and we do not.

  • Action planning: Initiatives broken into actions with owners, timelines, and resources.
  • Implementation support: Project management and guidance for the teams carrying out each initiative.
  • Monitoring and reporting: Progress measures and reporting to leadership and governing bodies.
  • Plan refresh: Periodic review and adjustment as conditions change.
