Sense Checking Your Strategy Design Using Design Thinking




Sense Checking Your Strategy Design Using Design Thinking

Time is precious. Lack of focus is wasteful. Ignoring the future is dangerous. If you have any form of responsibility for growing a team, building a business and/or driving strategic change then this rapid and robust Strategy sense checker is for you. This is not an academic exercise. This is not about some new-fangled design thinking tool that will change your life. It’s about challenging your strategic thinking. It’s about pushing your understanding. It’s about reinforcing the commitment you have made (or need to make) to help realize the change you desire

I am not fans of the “this can help anyone” approach. Clearly, it has to be relevant to the world that you live in, the challenges you face and what you are hoping to achieve (either in business or life in general). Fostering a business vision or change requires significant buy-in and cultural adoption. Therefore, it’s difficult to exclude anyone from this exercise.

I  have worked a strong cross-section of business people (from a wide range of industry sectors) that have benefited from this type of strategy sense-checking exercise:

  • Start-up Entrepreneurs who need to keep sharpening and tuning their growth strategy in readiness for investment

  • Co-Founders and Business Owners trying to align joint ambition levels and agree on the critical next steps for business growth

  • Team Leaders who have to bring clarity to their team (and their boss) on the story of how they will drive change and achieve their objectives

  • Senior Executives who want to quietly assess the business strategy in preparation for their next leadership team meeting

How well designed is your Strategy? Let’s 10X it. Regardless of where you are on your strategic journey, it’s always valuable to stop, take a breath, and reflect on what’s actually happening. Perhaps it’s time to consider some bolder steps in service of your vision? Together we’ll assess your Strategy Design against our framework that challenges your confidence is 10 particular areas that will ultimately result in your strategy design score with the aim of moving you to action to do something different that you otherwise would not have.
