strategy

READY / AIM
This style values inspiration, ideas, and input and then needs to check out the viability of implementing these new ideas. There is often a lot of time consulting appropriate groups for feedback and then setting up planning and strategy committees to make recommendations about how to proceed. Unfortunately this process often takes a long time and the plans and strategies never get put into action because people, circumstances and enthusiasm have all shifted.

PROBLEM: These projects never come off the page to see the light of day. People have worked hard investigating, brainstorming, reviewing, researching, writing and planning, but when the petal hit the metal, the engine was turned off usually because: people are frightened of implementing, or they don’t have the budget, or the people who originally supported the project have all left, etc.

THIS STYLE IS MOST OFTEN FOUND:
governments, large corporations, bureaucratic structures, etc.
