Clear Plans. Engaged People. Real Momentum.
Strategic planning for local governments that are ready to stop planning and start doing.
Let me introduce myself.
I'm Shannon. After over twenty years working in local government, I founded Stratalysts because I was tired of seeing organizations spend a ton of time and money develop to a strategic plan that never went anywhere. As a former Finance Director and COO/CFO, I was particularly frustrated by what felt like a waste of resources. As a part of these organizations, I felt frustrated by the disconnect between vision and reality.
After I started paying attention, I noticed the problem is seldom a bad strategic plan. More often than not, it has everything to do with being able to translate strategic planning into operational doing. Just because you have a good strategic plan does not mean the organization is in a position to execute it. What looks good on paper can quickly fall apart when confronted with day-to-day realities.
I started Stratalysts to bridge the gap between vision and operations. How do you translate broad vision and goals into actions that people can take on daily/weekly/monthly basis? What do you need to consider along the way? How do you adapt in real-time as things change? I help local governments become strategic organizations...not just strategic planners.
