How does it work?
-
Jeff will guide you through a planning meeting to ensure alignment on workshop objectives, desired outcomes, and agenda. He’ll also advise you on meeting logistics, headcount, and room arrangements that create a great experience.
-
Participants will receive an email preview, complete with a video, which means every participant arrives aligned, primed, and ready.
-
Jeff will create pre-work assignments for workshop participants, including surveys, interviews, and research.
-
The workshop will leverage small group activities to dissect and address each strategic question to ensure every voice is heard.
-
Participants will develop and compare up to three strategies, choosing the most potent path forward.
-
Starting with an in-room draft, Jeff then crafts a digital second. The second draft and guidance for getting feedback form the foundation for a final, collaboratively perfected strategy.
-
Leave with a first draft plan and a clear 90-day accountability roadmap.
-
Benefit from a structured 90-day follow-up meeting agenda.
-
Photos capture every insight from the workshop and the moments your team was in the thick of it, shaping the future.
What makes this workshop different?
-
We will focus on what makes the organization competitive in the marketplace, not on Mission, Vision, and Values or the team’s to-do list.
-
We won’t spend hours wordsmithing sentences. Jeff has a proven process for getting the words just right so you can focus on getting the best ideas on the table.
-
All of Jeff’s workshops are activity-based. What that means is there will be no PowerPoint slides or long-winded presentations. We roll up our sleeves and get to work when the workshop begins.
-
We won’t settle for the first and most obvious path forward. We will explore multiple paths and approaches for your strategic plan, leading to better and more comprehensive thinking by your team.
-
There will be an agenda for this workshop, but Jeff is a master at adapting and improvising the work to reach the best outcome for the group.
-
Jeff is a business person who facilitates workshops. He led a $1 billion frozen foods brand, spearheading one of the most transformational and productive periods.
