“What if everything you learned about business strategy is WRONG?”
Why, then it’s time to sign-up for John Hagel’s webinar on FAST Strategy presented by StrategyWorld.org.
In this webinar John reveals why the basic principles of traditional strategy – the principles still taught at most business schools and company executive education programs – are wrong:
· WRONG: Develop a detailed strategy before moving to operational implementation
· WRONG: Focus on a one to five year time horizon to develop robust strategies.
· WRONG: Pursue a portfolio approach to business initiatives to cope with growing uncertainty.
· WRONG: Strategy is a specialized discipline that needs to be pursued by experts.
The alternative? FAST Strategy.
John shows us how some of the most successful companies in the world maintain their advantages, and we can begin to synthesize a new approach to strategy, an approach called FAST strategy.
This approach integrates four elements in an innovative way:
· Focus – building alignment around a long term, five to ten year destination.
· Accelerate – ensuring that the highest impact operational initiatives over the next six to twelve months receive a critical mass of resources
· Strengthen – designing organizational initiatives that can be implemented over a six to twelve month period to address key bottlenecks preventing the firm from moving even more rapidly.
· Tie it together – effectively integrating the first three elements in ways that speed up learning and enhance performance.
