Do I already have a strategy?

Now that you’ve had a chance to reflect on the core elements of strategy, it’s time to get more practical. In this section, we’ll guide you in thinking about what your organisation truly needs when it comes to strategy or planning.

Assess Needs – Determine if your organisation needs full planning, updates, or minor tweaks.
Decision Tree – Consider need, prior work, and capacity before starting strategic planning.
Internal vs External – Use in-house resources if available; otherwise, get external help.
Tactics Trap – Avoid focusing on short-term activities without a clear long-term strategy.
Distractions & Paralysis – Don’t chase “new things” or overanalyse; turn aspirations into priorities.
Find the Crux – Focus on key barriers or opportunities; do fewer things well.
