Framing strategy when emerging from a crisis webinar

 

 

Preparing for projects in a Post-Pandemic World webinar series

 

If dozens or even hundreds of stakeholders are required to implement a strategy after a major crisis then it is essential that they can all understand it and know exactly what they need to do. The simple yet rigorous OpenStrategies system creates and validates such strategies.

Having created many OpenStrategies it has become clear that almost all strategies have a common format and that this format works effectively for all levels of strategies, from aspirational high-level strategies down through mid-level guidance strategies to operational-level strategies.

By using exactly the same succinct format for ‘SubStrategies’ at all levels of strategic information, everyone can understand what’s going to be done irrespective of whether they are a CEO or front-line worker. This is particularly important after a regional, nation-wide or international crisis when very large numbers of actions by many people need to be simultaneously guided by equally large numbers of strategies which must operate in parallel.

Phil’s webinar presented on Wednesday 15 April 2020 characterised a post-crisis strategic environment and demonstrate how OpenStrategies works at multiple levels as a framework for post-crisis, large-scale strategy development, validation and implementation.

Presenter
Phil Driver developed the OpenStrategies system for creating, validating and implementing strategies in complex, large scale, multi-stakeholder environments. OpenStrategies and Phil’s core “PRUB-Logic” strategic thinking structure are described in his book Validating Strategies - linking Projects and Results to Uses and Benefits which forms the basis for his Master’s-level courses. Phil recently published his practitioners’ handbook From Woe to Flow - Developing and Implementing Strategies. Phil has applied scientific, engineering and project management disciplines to the design of the OpenStrategies system based on the philosophy of “the smallest amount of strategic information that has the highest value to the most stakeholders” – which is essential if all stakeholders are to understand their strategies.
