Celebrating a fantastic end to 2023 with the incredible leaders in the AllianceBernstein's Career Catalyst program! 🚀 Together, Brad, Alicia, and I dove into the realms of vision setting and strategic planning, gearing up for a powerful new year.
Navigating the day-to-day grind can be overwhelming, making it challenging to carve out time for envisioning the future and preparing for what lies ahead. We not only shared our proven approach to vision setting and strategic planning, but also discussed best practices for leveraging collaborative inputs for brainstorming to prioritization and roadmapping.
Building the plan is the first step! Remember to also:
☑ Stay aligned: Maintain alignment with your team and other leaders through intentional communication
☑ Tell the story: Create buy-in through messaging that shares the ‘why’ and communicate early and often
☑ Remain flexible: Revisit your plan to reprioritize and adjust based on feedback and other changes
☑ Focus on the plan: Keep the prioritized projects visible and top of mind to hold you and your team accountable for reaching your goals
☑ Remember change is hard! Even when you and your team know the benefits that lie ahead, the journey to get there is never easy.
☑ Celebrate together! 🎉 (We're currently celebrating Brynn Plummer, her incredible leadership of the Career Catalyst program, and the guidance and support she offered along the way!)
We're ready to start 2024 off with a meaningful vision and clear plan! We can empower teams to master the art of strategic planning facilitation, and we offer the option to do it for you so you can focus on strategy creation instead of the facilitation. 💼✨Let's explore the possibilities together and turn your visions into reality. 🌐 #strategicplanning #changemanagement SEI
