Episode description
We're talking about strategic planning and critical thinking today, or planning strategically and thinking critically, or critical strategy and planning to think – or whatever you want to call it.
It's all about looking ahead today; mapping a road to the future and then figuring out how to get there.
And here to help us make sense of all this is Jennifer Elder, a thought leader with the Business Learning Institute who works with companies to find creative solutions to their most challenging problems. She also helps financial leaders become more strategic, staying ahead of the competition and becoming more successful.
And she has some fantastic insights into the notion of building a vision and executing on it: where to start, the key components of a strategic plan, possible land mines that you'll want to look out for, and what to do once the plan is complete. (Spoiler: Don't just throw it on a bookshelf or no one's going to look at it ever again!)
