Sparks of Inspiration
Our work centres around three foundational elements (strategy, operations and privacy) and more importantly, how they work together to help you meet your goals. An organization can obviously be strong in one or more of these areas, but in our experience, it’s when all three elements are working in support of one another, that the magic happens.
We know first-hand, the unique challenges that small and mid-sized organizations can face. We also know the commitment and perseverance found in these organizations and what can be accomplished with just a spark of inspiration.
In this series, you’ll find toolkits, checklists and other resources to help inspire change in your organization.
We regularly post our Sparks of Inspiration on our LinkedIn page or you can sign up to receive them by email below.
Our Approach: Strategic Planning
We believe strategic plans need to fit your organization. They should be accessible, realistic and serve as your North Star. Your plan should be used to help guide:
Individual and team goal setting
Performance measurement
Celebrating success
Every activity should link back to your plan – otherwise, why are you doing it?
