The Future of Planning & Performance
Stevan Browning • October 14, 2019
Planning and performance management processes... you either love them or hate them.
They are a beautiful thing when they create unified focus and alignment across your company. They can also be incredibly frustrating, consume a tremendous amount of time...and have little benefit!
In this executive briefing we would like to introduce you to The One Page Business Plan, what it is, how it works and why it may be useful to you and your company. We hope you find the techniques we have developed over the last seventeen years and used with thousands of business owners and executives to be helpful. We have learned that the concepts of One Page Planning work equally well in large companies like Disney, Oracle, America Online and Morgan Stanley as they do with small to mid-market companies. The process also works incredibly well with non-profits, hospitals, school districts and government agencies.
Most of us have no shortage of good ideas! The issue is which ideas are we going to act on? Learn how to say no to “good ideas”...yours, and your employees’. You only have time, money and resources to execute against the “great ideas”. The great ideas can be written on the back of an envelope. They are memorable! They catalyze people and businesses.
Planning doesn’t need to be complex! Keep it simple!
