Step #11 - in the 20 Steps to Build a Great Business
The Leadership Planning Process and Document
"You read a book from beginning to end. You run a business the opposite way. You start with the end, and then you do everything
you must to reach it."
- Harold Geneen, industrialist
Strategic Planning is a must for ANY BUSINESS. You must have a place to document and write the story of your business. In 30 years of corporate life I have been a part of dozens of strategic planning meetings and the documents or "books" that usually followed those meetings. 100% of them were put on a shelf and never looked at again for a year or more. The meetings were good, but the documents were too long, complex and just not fluid enough to be used. We could not execute with them.
I found a simple document, that is great for the small business. It is a document that is part of a process, has everything in 2 pages, is updated quarterly and is a living plan that requires execution and accountability. Here is a 10 minute video taking you through this document.
I have a new online coaching Class starting Nov 15th. This course is a 6 month mini MBA with you and your company as the case study. You will learn and take action on that learning to build your plan and learn how to ensure it is executed.
