There are many formats that the strategic planning process can take shape. In our experience, we know that each business and leadership team have different needs, but all come back to the same conclusion; how can we get really clear about where we are going?

A fresh perspective brings what may have previously been unknown, to become very obvious. All too often business owners sit too close to the problem and that third party can break the situation down into bite-size chunks and facilitate a path forward.

We can support you in the following ways:

• Strategic Planning Workshops
• Strategic Planning tools
• Strategic Planning Online Tools and Courses
• One on one Strategic Planning Coaching

They say that leadership is a thankless task, and at times it may be, but imagine the impact you can have not those around you if you lead with awareness, gratitude and vulnerability?

In The Leadership Diaries, I explore what it is to be a leader and how in the end we are all just humans doing our best to have a positive impact.

The 90 Day Strategic Planning Course is designed in such a way that you can chip away at both the learning and the plan to make it easier to make progress. So many plans are just too complicated, especially when you are time-poor. We have made it as simple as we possibly could without reducing the value and impact.

The core principle of the plan is to DO LESS, and have MORE IMPACT. No business as usual, no time-wasting, just a laser-focus on what needs to be done for you and your team to achieve the goals you set for yourselves.

The vision for Waking Giants was to enable more business owners to identify the opportunities they have in themselves and their business by working alongside them. But with the changing demands of business, our passion needed to become something more. We created the Waking Giants Academy to enable ANY business owner to get access to incredibly simple and practical strategic planning tools to help them move forward.

As part of our 3 Pillar strategy, this course is focused on taking massive, focused action! Along with strong leadership and understanding of the value of building an authentic brand, the 3 Pillars give you the platform to build a purposeful and sustainable business.

Grant knows from experience that simplicity is the fastest way to success. That’s why we have broken every step down to enable you to get momentum and get into action right from the first day!

Why are these tools so cheap?

We have spent years developing the way we work. A full workshop is in excess of $5000 to facilitate the process. But our mission is to enable as many business owners as possible to get clarity on their true goals and how they get there. To meet this goal, we have to make the tools simple, accessible and valuable in their impact.

Can I use the plan without coaching?

Yes. We have designed them to be as easy as possible to get started. We have four levels to enable you to start where you are most comfortable.

Does the course cover all aspects of the business?

It can do and that’s how it is most often used. But equally, if you want to focus on one element of your business the 90 days plan will thrash out the goal and the 30-day plan will help you to get it into action.

Why does the course focus on 30 Days?

Our goal is to help you create momentum. This is the right amount of time to see some serious progress.
