Strategic Planning, Execution Frameworks & Organizational Health – Executive Summary
There are many frameworks and components for strategic management, planning, and execution; like a Ferrari, a BMW, or a Volkswagen, they all do the job – just differently. Ultimately, every business needs to answer some key questions:
Where are we? Where are we going? How do we get there? How are we doing? How do we function effectively? How can we influence what we cannot control? How should we appear to Customers (BtoB, BtoC)? How do we look to our investors? How do we look to our workforce? How do we sustain, and continuously learn & improve? What must we excel at to satisfy stakeholders? How do we become The Employer of Choice, and the Provider of Choice in the markets we serve?
Led by an internal team (which frequently includes the CEO, CFO, COO, CHRO, sales & marketing, IT/IS, and other represented disciplines), and sometimes also key stakeholders (customers, suppliers), the output is practical & tactical, helping to enable sterling execution & organizational health.
Strategic management is a method by which leaders conceive of and implement a strategy that leads to a sustainable competitive advantage.
Strategic planning is a systematic, organizational effort that includes initial assessment, thorough analysis, strategy formulation, its implementation and evaluation, leading to the achievement of business goals, and competitive advantage. Continuous improvement / continuous learning includes benchmarking, best practices, change management, and performance excellence. Input frequently comes from senior management, and may also come from lead investors, the workforce, key customers, suppliers, and distributors.
Execution frameworks help align the organization’s talent, organizational structure, programs, projects, tasks, processes, and technology, to ensure strategy is executed on time, on budget, as required, meeting (and exceeding) business goals. In many instances, an execution framework has few strategic objectives, numerous (enabling) tactical initiatives, measures, and targets, plans operations, monitors and learns, validates & adapts, supported by budget & resources.
Organizational health is about making a company function effectively by building a cohesive leadership team, establishing real clarity among those leaders, communicating that clarity to everyone within the organization, and putting in place enough structure to reinforce that clarity going forward, and aligning rewards, metrics, and resources.
Attendees will go through the strategic planning and analysis processes and resources needed to create a long-term and annual strategic plan. Strategic planning skills, processes, and techniques require training and implementation, so the workshop exercises will focus on the activities that are required to:
• Develop an effective and executable strategic plan.
• Work through a comprehensive analysis of the chapter’s strategic strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats.
• Create a Michael Porter Five Forces model that will provide insight into the impact of the chapter’s buyers, suppliers, product substitutes, and potential entrants have on their market.
