Here’s a data point for you: How about something that promises that 74% of the value of an initiative is realized in the first year of roll-out?

To achieve this, it’s important to understand that traditional strategic planning is failing us—and always has. The process never seems to deliver all that it promises at the beginning. Chances are that you have already undertaken the creation of a strategic plan in the traditional sense, but you are stuck.

Today’s episode gives you a way to manage your strategic initiatives, create quick wins and minimize losses – turning data into money.
