The Strategy Visioning Workshop Journal is the companion guide to our popular books Succeeding as a Management Consultant, The Operations Management Journal, The Corporate Wellness Strategy Journal, The Digital & Information Technology Strategy Journal, The Investment Strategy Journal and The Strategy Journal, an Amazon bestseller.
Our books are different. It’s practically impossible to find examples of consulting studies, analyses, and proposals. There is clarity and value in seeing this. Reading descriptions of how consultants analyze problems, or write proposals, is not the same as seeing the work. This is what we offer. The process taught can be modified to fit most strategy workshop goals.
The journal is divided into 4 parts: (1) The workshop map, (2) Understanding the workshop, (3) The workshop begins, and (4) Output.
UNDERSTANDING THE WORKSHOP contains:
What is corporate strategy?
Visioning workshop to corporate strategy
What is the logic of the overall process?
How would you pull all the pieces together?
Let’s walk through a typical visioning workshop
What are the explicit objectives of each part of the workshop?
What is the objective of the overall workshop?
Do we always pre-presents?
What are the checklists/milestones/ early warning signs?
What happens if the wrong market/segment is selected?
Why doesn’t one elegant analysis provide the answer?
Why don’t we use SWOT analysis?
Why don’t we use Porter’s Five Forces?
Does this analysis replace a business plan?
Should the same logic + approach be used for all corporate strategy studies?
Must a workshop format always be used?
Why conduct the workshop so early?
Is this the entire corporate strategy process?
If not, what is there to come?
Who should be invited?
How should the room/event be organized?
Where should the workshop be held?
How important is the skill to facilitate the workshop?
Who facilitates?
Who makes the final decisions?
What happens if the client arrives at a different conclusion?
This journal helps readers walk into any situation in any organization anywhere in the world and run a strategy visioning workshop via to-do list prompts, guides, and a visual example. All based on the combined best-practices of the author and the ex-McKinsey, BCG, et al. partners who produce all the strategy training programs on StrategyTraining.com.
