What is strategic planning?
ShiftFlow uses an iterative and flexible approach to strategic planning that embraces the principles of agility, adaptability and emergence. It recognizes that in today's rapidly changing and unpredictable business environment, rigid and linear planning processes may not be effective. Agile strategic planning embraces the core values of agility, such as flexibility, collaboration, responsiveness, and continuous learning. It focuses on shorter planning cycles and frequent reassessment and adjustment of strategies based on new information, feedback, and changing circumstances.
How is it different?
Iterative Approach: Agile strategic planning breaks the planning process into smaller iterations or cycles, allowing for more frequent reviews and adjustments. This iterative nature enables organizations to respond quickly to emerging opportunities or challenges, incorporating new insights and adapting strategies as needed.
Collaboration and Cross-functional Teams: Agile strategic planning encourages collaboration among different teams and stakeholders within the organization. Cross-functional teams work together to define goals, develop strategies, and execute initiatives. This collaborative approach fosters collective ownership, shared understanding, and diverse perspectives in the planning process.
Rapid Feedback and Learning: Agile strategic planning places a strong emphasis on feedback loops and learning. Regular feedback from customers, stakeholders, and market dynamics helps organizations validate assumptions, gather insights, and make informed adjustments to strategies. This feedback-driven approach ensures that the planning process remains dynamic and responsive to real-time information.
Flexibility and Adaptability: Agile strategic planning recognizes the need for flexibility and adaptability in the face of uncertainty and change. It allows for adjustments to strategies, resource allocation, and priorities based on new information and shifting market conditions. This flexibility enables organizations to seize emerging opportunities or mitigate risks more effectively.
Empowering Execution: Agile strategic planning connects the planning process closely with execution. It emphasizes empowering teams to make decisions, experiment, and take ownership of the implementation of strategies. This fosters a culture of agility, innovation, and adaptability throughout the organization.
