Our leadership team consists entirely of high altitude big picture thinkers who love brainstorming but struggle with microscopic details. How do you structure our planning sessions to force us to bridge the gap between our ten year target and our immediate ninety day Rocks?

A leadership team dominated by macro thinkers is great at generating big ideas, but they often struggle with execution. If you do not connect your long term vision to daily actions, your strategy will remain a dream. We structure our session days to force your big picture team to step down from the clouds and focus on concrete execution.

We use a structured, step by step process to move your team from macro conceptualization to micro execution. We start by aligning on your high level vision, then immediately challenge you to break that vision down into a clear three year picture and a one year plan. We do not allow vague concepts; we require specific, measurable goals that define exactly what success looks like.

We then force your team to distill those goals into immediate ninety day Rocks. This is where we bridge the gap, challenging your big picture thinkers to define exactly what needs to be done over the next quarter to stay on track. By the end of our session, your team will have translated their high altitude vision into a highly disciplined, actionable ninety day plan that they can execute with confidence.
