What we often observe: opaque processes, pushed through top-down, papers that end up in a drawer, without motivating narratives and concrete measures, no translation into the budget, a one-off exercise with considerable extra effort that disrupts day-to-day business, instead of an ongoing structured dialogue.
Our View:
-
A strategy process should be reflected in all 3 dimensions (culture, strategy and organization) and all 3 systemic levels (company, teams, individuals) of the Esquai framework
-
A well-structured and neutrally facilitated strategy process creates alignment and is the basis for change
Esquai Formats & Interventions:
-
Design of a pragmatic and transparent strategy process
-
Initiating a dialogue between all stakeholders involved
-
Facilitation of the strategy process, drawing on proven methods (e.g. SWOT analyses, action management, OKR)
-
Creating an environment for regular strategy reviews and for checking implementation discipline
