Strategic Vision Summit
Time to engage your team in handling the big questions? Time to define key initiatives for your organization?
About Strategic Planning:
Traditional planning involves looking at problems based on what we already know.
Yet, the best strategic planning highlights the true nature of an issue, free from our subjective slant, liberated from ego-bound constraints (such as positionality), and unfettered from habitual, blocked ways of perceiving, exploring and processing information. The best strategic planning retreats help your group identify big goals and visions, the obstacles, and the best paths for achieving these goals.
A classic way of thinking about the strategic planning process is this:
- Situation – Where are we right now?
- Target – Where do we want to be? What are our goals and visions? What are the possibilities for achieving these goals?
- Path – How can we get there?
Collaboration: Strategic planning should be collaborative. Therefore, our strategic planning executive retreats are facilitated in a way that unites your team rather than divides. It’s crucial that your facilitator is not only academically astute in the topic of strategic planning, but that your facilitator is also highly trained in the kind of group facilitation that unites the highly-charged and opinionated leaders that often rise to the top.
