95% of employees do not understand their organization’s strategy. Do yours know it?

“The central purpose of an organization is to make the whole greater than the sum of the parties” (David Norton)

Units, Areas, Processes and People How to get everyone to collaborate in the implementation of the same global strategy?

If the strategy doesn’t clearly translate to the rest of your organization, don’t expect good decisions to be implemented or made.

Creating synergies as a new source of value requires consistent organizational alignment. Without alignment there is no reason to have business units in the same company.

Strategy Communication

“The problem with communication is the illusion that it has been achieved. A message sent does not mean that it has been received.”

95% of employees do not understand their organization’s strategy. Do yours know it?

Without communication both areas and collaborators cannot adapt their work to contribute to the effective implementation of the strategy. Making the strategy meaningful to each member requires a clear understanding of the new direction that management is charting, and communication is a key driver for organizational success. Develop an effective communication program by bringing the strategy message to the entire organization.

Strategic Analysis Meetings

“Those who do not learn from their past are doomed to repeat them” (Spanish Philosopher, Jorge Santayana)

85% of executive teams spend less than an hour a month discussing business strategy” In strategy review meetings 70% of management time is dedicated to analyzing past performances, with reviews focused on deviations and implications.

It is also noted that the time consumed for reporting is greater than the time spent analyzing it.

The key is to get leaders to focus the agenda of their meetings on strategic issues, linked to what they will do and not just to what they have already done. An open discussion of information should be encouraged and not a culture that focuses on punishing negative outcomes. This encourages teamwork and motivates managers to detect problems at an early stage.
