Strategy Shaping Sprint
Turn direction into moves your team can actually execute
A focused working session that turns intent into a small set of practical strategic moves, with clear owners, timelines and early signals of progress.
Best when
You have broad direction but need to convert it into concrete steps, leaders need alignment after a change, or a function needs a plan everyone can stand behind.
Leave with
A 'strategy on a page', priority moves with owners and dates, key dependencies and risks, and a plan with early signs to watch.

Our approach
We give language people can use.
Meaning the strategy shows up in everyday choices, not just in a slide.
We clarify the story and the level of ambition.
Aligning leaders around a few brave priorities that make sense in the real world.
We test what’s left unsaid beneath the strategy.
Protecting against drift and keeping commitments honest when pressure hits.
