Strategy
Strategy is a comprehensive guideline that focuses on an organization's
vision on its means to deliver values to its customers and shareholders.
Strategy is a key that drives the day to day operation of every
level of an organization. Strategy is not an array of specific tactical
decisions or projects.
Strategy is the starting point for success. Knowing what you intend
on becoming is key to achieving your goals, be they cost reduction,
profit enhancement, quality improvement or market penetration-or
some combination of all these, and more. Yet many companies have
a strategy by default, not by design. They drift into their futures
using a tired old mixture of "what worked the last time",
"the way we do things around here" and "if it isn't
broke, don't fix it." Strange thing about these approaches
is you don't hear them much anymore. That's because those who held
them are fast becoming casualties of a dynamic world-they're selecting
themselves out of the future.
At Gordian Transformation Partners, we believe in active strategy.
Strategic planning must confront the inevitable. It has to be actioned
to earn the investment in time, money and management attention it
often requires. We make sure that happens. We make sure the strategy
is real-positive, uplifting, and inspirational, but always attainable,
measurable, and valuable. Strategy should drive structure, it should
set lofty, achievable goals, and it must be enacted.
Gordian's strategic roadmap offering is a 2-12 week (usually 3-6)
analysis. We work closely with a team of client representatives,
including participants from executive leadership, operations, IT,
and key support functions. The joint team then embarks on a series
of focused facilitated activities designed to surface and evaluate
opportunities based on the needs and direction of the organization.
This approach based on client participation promotes consensus building
and buy-in, which is a necessary ingredient for subsequent rapid
implementation. In addition, Gordian transfers knowledge and understanding
of both the content and process by which the strategic roadmap has
been developed.

Roadmap Methodology
Gordian's strategy formulation methodology also includes an assessment
of the organization's change readiness and its current organizational
capabilities. Recommendations will be provided to address any deficiencies
that could impede implementation success.
By examining all the important elements of an organization's current
and future landscape, Gordian's strategy approach ensures a direction
that makes sense, supported by the capabilities and competencies
necessary for success.
The nature of Gordian's strategy formulation involves iterative
cycles that occur within the above-described elements. During the
analysis cycle, new learning occurs and new information surfaces
that can impact prior decisions. Our methodology takes this evolutionary
process into account by encouraging dialogue, investigation, and
questioning. The resulting outcome truly becomes a "living
roadmap" that can be refined and improved over time, thanks
to the client's participation in, and assimilation of, Gordian's
strategy formulation methodology.
