Strategic planning training model
Give us the tools, and we will finish the job! - Winston Churchill
Strategic planning
Training model: We aren't consultants, telling you what to do. Instead, we train you in the four 1-page planning tools from the GMs Toolkit, including the Goal Tree (image). This toolset helps you answer the core questions of leadership:
- Why are we doing this?
- Where are we going?
- How are we going to get there?
The Goal Tree
- Direction and priorities at a glance
- Clear lines of delegation, accountability
- Shows everyone how they fit together
