For mid-sized and larger organizations Strategy Roundtable™ Enterprise provides a groupware solution that turns the compilation and tracking of your strategy into an effort shared by your management team.
For smaller organizations, Strategy Roundtable™ Desktop provides a single user solution for capturing and manipulating the key components of your situation and ensuring a consistent and complete strategy, easily updated as your situation changes.
As highlighted by the bursting of the dot-com bubble, strategic planning is as, if not more, important than ever. In order to be effective, your strategic planning process must be an almost continuous process involving a wide array of employees.
Strategy Roundtable™ Enterprise is specifically designed to enable rapid, iterative, continuous planning processes by supporting the asynchronous activities of multiple players in the planning process:
- Executive management establishes the mission, vision, values and assumptions for the plan;
- Strategic planners facilitate goal and objective generation, and validate their completeness and consistency;
- Line management applies the evolving goals and objectives to their specific area, develops proposed actions for implementing the strategy and provides regular updates on the progress of approved projects.
By using Strategy Roundtable™, the planning process is distributed among multiple concurrent activities greatly reducing the time required to produce, update and, when warranted, re-think the plan. At the same time, a central, on-line facility provides the entire management team with ready access to the evolving strategy as it is created, carried out and re-created.
In addition, with Strategy Roundtable™, the same individuals who are responsible for implementing the plan also contribute to its construction fostering greater commitment and improved follow-through.
