    Which is Best for Us? Top Down, Bottoms Up, or Middle Out

“We have successfully used Lean in manufacturing and the supply chain, and we recognized there was a wealth of opportunity beyond the manufacturing floor for the application of lean. We wanted to find someone who had an experience base with business support processes to bring lean to that audience of our company. Shelley provided us that credible source. She brought numerous examples from her experience about how lean principles and tools apply to office and service operations, and helped translate employee questions to show them how the principles applied to what they do.”

Strategic Planning

When the Jewish Community Center was growing from portable cubicles to a full fledged campus they knew they needed a new strategic plan to help them get there. We helped them create it and implement.

Are you expanding geographically or building a new facility?

Do you need to move the organization to the next phase of its development?

Are competitors encroaching on your market?

Are your merging with another organization?

Strategic Planning can help create a common focus, build commitment for action based on critical service needs, and turn your vision into action.

Ideas and Involvement

We use a proven method to get stakeholders from diverse backgrounds with different points of view talking to one another. We will sketch out a plan for you involving key executives, staff, the Board, and other internal and external stakeholders. Out model includes

Plan and Roadmap

Organization Assessment

Building a Common Framework (Vision, Mission, Strategic Objectives, Program Matrix)

Prioritizing Initiatives

Implementation

We are flexible to your needs, timeframe, and geography and can use a blended plan of virtual, small group and large group sessions, with work in between.

Implementation and Impact

Together we build a common focus vs. hashing out problems. Employees and board members are energized because they contribute, formulate ideas together, and see the bigger picture. When they build a plan and initiative together they want to implement. At the same time they understand that an integrative approach for the customer and the organization means trade offs and everyone can’t have everything.
