In this episode, Tracey and Dan speak about the top 5 common mistakes they see leaders make, when setting their organisation's strategy.

Here is a taste of what Tracey and Dan cover in the conversation

  • What are the things to consider in creating a strategy?
  • Why you shouldn’t Ignore the needs of your clients, the community, and their employees
  • How goals can sometimes not be tied to measurable outcomes 
  • The issue of using jargon in your strategic plans: Corporate language vs. human language
  • Why your people aren’t able to take meaningful action to achieve their goals, because they are stuck in the world of strategy and not action.
  • Turning strategy into action: If the strategic plan is not put into action, it will not be used or provide value.
