Frequently asked questions

What is strategy development?

A three-to-five year plan that sets out where the organisation is going, what it will do, and how it will measure progress. Built from stakeholder interviews and evidence, not a template.

How long does it take?

Eight to twelve weeks for most organisations.

What does the organisation have to contribute?

Three to four workshops with the senior team, plus access to existing documents and stakeholders for interviews.

What does a board-ready strategy include?

Clear priorities, what you will stop doing, measurable indicators, a year-one operating plan with named owners, and an evidence base that shows how the conclusions were reached. Not generic statements copied from elsewhere.

Do you work across sectors?

Yes. SMEs, public bodies, and larger organisations. The interviews, workshops, and written outputs are the same; what changes is the governance context and who needs to sign the plan off.
