Process
Think Big, Start Small, and Fail Forward
HOW you make aspirations a reality builds the foundation you need to push the limits for your Enterprise. When you scale down and simplify your aspirations, you can better see where they fall into your current Operating Model—and what needs to change to make them possible.
Step 1
Define Your Version of Success
Aspiration to Win
Making your aspirations a reality requires a willingness to look beyond your status quo or reality in order to define your “WHY”, your “True North” and aspiration to win. This culminates into your version of success: From there we help define the “WHAT” to describe the focus and strategic intents of where the organization will play to win
Step 3
Disrupt the Status Quo
Transform Your Future
Today change is eminent, it’s the pace of change that drives the difference from survive to thrive. Organizations thriving live in a continuously evolving landscape and ecosystem of competitive and market pressures as well ever-changing customer expectations. While survival may represent the status quo—it will not be enough. Today, your success depends on your resilience to reinvent, disrupt and influence your market position with: Your vision/mission, Your Operating Model, Your Speed to Market, and Your Customer Experience.
Step 2
Align Strategy, Leadership, and Operating Model
HOW TO WIN
Momentum isn’t possible without alignment of your aspirations, your strategy, your operating model, and your leadership. You have a vision, a “True North”, then be sure it is relevant to your organization, stakeholders and partners without misinterpretation, misalignment or miscommunication.
Step 4
Execute Your Journey
Realize Your Future
Executing your journey is about realizing success, measured through carefully executing initiatives / programs based on the aspirational Business Outcomes you defined: What Your Aspirations, What Must Happen to Achieve Them, and What’s Expected of Your Leadership in the process.
