Facilitating Strategic Planning Workshops

Effective strategic planning workshop outcomes require broader skills than simple meeting management. Successful leaders adeptly select the facilitation tools that fit the questions to be asked and ambiguities to be resolved rather than blindly following a rigid process. These leaders can frame their questions in a way that mitigates the various decision biases that can otherwise affect decision quality. They understand the different components of creating a sound strategy and design their meetings to incorporate these components, thus ensuring that their team fully understands the key uncertainties, risks, and future scenarios that will guide idea generation.
