The Art of the 1-Page Strategy: Use Storytelling to Communicate to the Board EDT: 11:00 a.m. | BST: 16:00
Let’s get your strategy down to one page. Yes, one page. Creating a strategy used to be an arduous and lengthy process that lasted months and resulted in a document that was hundreds of pages. It was WORN -- Written Once, but Read Never. Developing a strategy is easier today, with 15 pages replacing hundreds, but even that is 14 too many. So, how can you get your strategy down to a single page? This complimentary webinar explores how strategic storytelling is used to engage and inspire your business stakeholders, encouraging them to invest more in business capabilities enabled by technology.
