Strategic Initiative Planning and Management

Exceptional corporate planning leads to exceptional operational execution.

Successful execution of corporate strategy requires governance and planning.  Strategic goals represent work that must be translated into well-planned and carefully coordinated programs. Aligning corporate strategy to operational execution is critical, yet most organizations fail to continue the planning effort beyond the corporate planning process.  While many strategic initiatives will ultimately impact the operational layers of the organization, corporate strategy must lead the effort by providing definition and governance for goal-supporting initiatives.  Failure to plan appropriately at this level leads to severe strategy misalignment and mission drift.

For corporate strategic initiative planning, Method Frameworks’ Plan4^SM approach ensures effective and controlled execution by providing initiative and project visualization from inception through implementation – regardless of the project type (business or technical).

Our unique Plan4 approach seamlessly combines the abilities to easily manage resources, keep the initiative on track, and communicate quickly and effectively with management.

Plan4 features:

• Powerful tools to facilitate the creation of organizational structures that empower informed employees with the latitude to make broader line-level decisions.
• Communication plans that target the right messages to the right people in the organization at the time that they need to receive the message.
• A mathematically-based foundation for the evaluation and timing of activities.
• Linkages to corporate strategy and organization communications protocols.
• Discrete tasks that allow the execution team to clearly and easily define the roles, responsibilities, and authorities for delivering desired outcomes.
• Tools and techniques to visually, in real time, identify, isolate and correct execution issues.

When applied, our proprietary process allows organizations the agility to respond to changes in corporate direction, market, and customer demands – as they become known – achieving the objectives and bringing return on investment for initiative execution.
