| It is commonly believed that
up to 70% of all business strategies do not deliver the benefits that they
set out to achieve.
Our experience suggests that the main cause of this problem is that many
organisations spend too little time developing their tactical responses and
ensuring that they align to the strategic direction chosen.
Successfully implemented strategies have several things in common:
- The organisation has invested the time needed to identify the
potential obstacles to success and has taken proactive action to mitigate
the risks of failure.
- Tactical choices are driven down from the strategy (not vice versa)
and can be easily traced to the strategy they support.
- The strategy and specific projects started to deliver the
organisations vision can be communicated quickly and clearly to all staff
without people having to read through 40 page strategy documents.
- All staff can see how their efforts contribute to the organisations
growth.
- Progress measurements are aligned with the vision of the organisation
and are agreed before implementation begins.
- The implementation plan is flexible and can adapt to changes in the
environment, organisation or market. 'Its a journey" where feedback
from change efforts is used to fine-tune and validate the choices made.
