Vision
Your team is passionate,
but everyone’s heading in
different directions
Values Not
Guiding Decisions

No Action
Plan
You know where you want to go, but there’s no clear strategic plan to get there
No Way to
Measure Progress
You’re moving, but it’s hard to tell what’s working or how far you’ve come against your goals
Strategy Isn’t
Being Used
You have a strategy,
but it’s sitting on the
shelf instead of driving action
No Team Alignment
People are working hard,
but not always toward
the same goals
