OVERVIEW
Challenges we hear
The last mid-term plan was missed and has since become a formality
What the divisions add up to does not meet what management is aiming for
The plan was written, but nothing exists to manage its execution
SCOPE
What we do
Framing the questions, reading the environment
We define first what this plan actually has to decide, then analyze the market, the competition and your own position against those questions only.
Writing the plan, breaking it down
We break the targets down to who does what and when, building the plan with the people who will run it.
Building the machinery to execute
We design the monthly review and the KPI monitoring, and stay through the first year.
OUTCOME
What you can expect
A plan that gets executed
Each measure comes down to who, what and when, and starts moving in year one.
People who believe in it
Because they helped write it, the plan becomes theirs.
Machinery that keeps turning
A monthly review and KPI monitoring keep progress in view.
WHY CATALYS
Why clients choose us
We care whether it gets executed
Not how elegant the plan looks, but whether it moves in the first year.
Built to involve the people who run it
Dialogue with the divisions is part of the process, so the plan becomes theirs.
We do not leave once it is written
We stay in the review meetings, closing the gap between the plan and reality.
