Focusing on your strategy to communicate, monitor and implement
it better
'Strategy exists in peoples' heads.
If your strategy is not there, they are executing someone else's
strategy'
Phil Jones , Excitant Ltd
The benefits
Our clients say it is easier to communicate, monitor
progress and make sure their strategy delivers the right results,
when their performance management approach is linked to their
strategy. Their confidence grows.
As an organisation, our clients say:
As a management team, they say:
-
Our meetings focus on the bigger issues, rather than
getting bogged down in the operational detail
-
We have better quality discussions, analysis and clearer
consensus. We have a greater understanding of the uncertainties
and risks
-
We have a clearer sense of where we are going, how we
will get there, and the progress we are making.
-
We can refine and develop our strategy which gives us
more confidence we will deliver the results.
The problems our clients often face
Sometimes we hear, "They don't get the strategy."
So our approach involves getting the strategy out of the
heads of the people that devised and planned it, into
the heads of the people who will execute it.
If the strategy is in their heads, they will be acting
upon it. If it is not in their heads, then they
are still executing a strategy - but it may not be your
strategy!
Too many measures - of the wrong sort
Sometimes we hear "We are inundated with too many measures
and not enough information. We don't have measures for the
things that are strategic."
We don't have a culture of performance
We help you address the underlying elements of culture, behaviours
and faulty performance management approaches that undermine
a culture of performance.
Our performance management approach is too complicated
We make the strategy planning and performance management
approaches process easier to operate, understand and manage
so you have more confidence in the results. A key piece
is recognising that strategic performance management is a
continuous process. So we unlock the barriers to such an approach,
to make it simpler.
If you want to check how well you are doing, take a look

We have clients using our approach 5 years after we worked
with them. As our clients' quotes show, a well executed
strategy project, introduced in a way that addresses both
the culture and performance of the organisation, is most
effective.
