Have you ever seen strategic master plans gather dust on a shelf? Or, have you ever poured your heart into a master plan only to see it fall flat?
Strategic Master Plans make sense but they rarely work in practice. If this echoes your experience, don’t miss this episode.
We’ll tackle the reasons why these efforts promise so much but deliver so little. We’ll examine the issue through the lens of Dr. Peter Compo, author and strategy theorist.
You’ll hear why strategic master plans which offer no more than wishlist-style thinking do more harm than good. We’ll also look at reasons why the EndPoint Method includes certain steps which invite difficult conversations and challenging tradeoffs.
The episode draws heavily on Peter Compo’s book The Emergent Approach to Strategy.
