You’ve nailed down WHAT you want to achieve with your strategy—now it’s time to tackle the HOW. Let’s make it happen! 🔧
Here’s what to consider:
🔹 Any legal, ethical, or moral roadblocks? If so, it’s time to rework your strategy. Integrity first!
🔹 Stakeholder alignment: Are the needs of owners, staff, customers, suppliers, and the local community accounted for? A strategy that benefits all stakeholders will have stronger support.
🔹 Cross-functional buy-in: Is every department on board and contributing? If not, find out why and fix it—solutions, not barriers, are what you need here.
Sure, this stage can get tricky—especially when you’ve got people pointing out what’s not possible. 🛑 Challenge them to focus on solutions and workarounds!
Break your path to the WHAT down into major milestones, then dive into the details. Get your teams to map out functional strategies with specific tasks that align with the bigger picture.
If this is starting to sound like project management, you’re on the right track. You already have the tools you need to bring your strategy to life! 💥
