FOR FIFTEEN YEARS, WE HAVE BEEN PARTNERING WITH TOP EXECUTIVES TO ADDRESS PIVOTAL STRATEGIC ISSUES THROUGH STRUCTURED OFFSITES, PROJECTS AND PROCESSES.
Over the past decade, the Strategic Offsites Group has become the world’s leading firm in designing and facilitating strategy conversations for executive teams and boards. We deliberately straddle the line between strategy, process, facilitation, and organizational consulting. This unique combination of expertise allows us to be trusted partners to our client executives on their most challenging strategic issues. Although industries and topics vary greatly, the core of our work is helping to align and galvanize our clients’ leadership to pursue their most significant opportunities.
Whether a client has engaged us for a single offsite or a multiyear change effort, our role is to help design and manage strategic conversations. Working closely with our clients, we design and facilitate meetings, projects and processes around key strategic challenges. While we are not team builders, we often help to optimize the function of executive teams. Our analytic tools, processes, and methods are focused around one theme: aligning management teams to successfully implement clear and positive strategies.
It is the rare management team that realizes the potential of its strategy offsites. In this seminal article, we distill a set of best practices that businesses can use to make the most of these extraordinary opportunities for alignment.
In this sequel to “Off-Sites That Work”, Bob and Cary provide a practical approach for maximizing the value of organizations’ annual leadership gatherings.
