What do you need from a strategic plan?
While a significant proportion of the value of strategic planning support comes from experienced facilitation, focused conversations, insights gleaned and decisions made, there’s also the plan itself. The physical roadmap of what’s most important to you, what you’ll focus on to achieve it, and how you’ll keep it alive and evolving.
Facilitator Troy Forrest and his Graphic Design partner Deb Trebilcock from Coalmine Canary have teamed up for over a decade to shape and deliver a broad array of plans, roadmaps and support tools for over 100 organisations in almost as many sectors.
Despite being very proud of these documents, we unfortunately can’t show you what we helped these clients create (commercial-in-confidence). So instead, we’ve “dummied up” some mock plans to give you an idea of what the final product can look like. Every plan, document and roadmap is different, tailored to you, employing your branding and style guides (or creating some for you), and befitting just what you need from a strategic roadmap.
