Strategy Execution & Transformation Consulting

70% to 90% of all strategic initiatives fail.

While they all start with good intentions, the business landscape is littered with failed strategic plans and unsuccessful change initiatives.

How many strategies never fulfill their promise or potential due to poor implementation? Are you feeling the pressure to increase speed, decrease costs, increase revenues, and improve productivity? Are your plans being successfully executed at all levels?

A sound strategic plan is critical. It is a company's game plan for succeeding. But for a strategic plan or any change initiative to make a true difference, it must be properly executed. To us, execution and continuous improvement are the key. LSA Global has worked with leading organizations in areas such as:

• Mergers and acquisitions
• ERP implementations
• Market focus shifts
• Leadership changes
• Reconfiguration of structures and processes
• Facilitating planning meetings
• Planning and implementing organizational change
• Strategy formulation and implementation
• Workforce planning

While each strategy requires a unique execution plan, the following 4-step process has proven to help leaders and their direct reports engage in and implement a strategic plan:

1. Conduct a Customized Employee Engagement Survey
   Measure your organization's engagement, productivity and employee retention health.  Our proven assessment uses statistically validated and predictive attributes based upon over 20 years of research and data gathered from over 20,000 managers and 60,000 employees.
    

2. Deploy Leading For Engagement Sessions for Key Leaders
   Ignite accountability, commitment, and change-readiness in your organization.  Provide your managers with proven tools and strategies to mobilize their employees’ energy and commitment. With the right approach, you can foster an environment where your employees are engaged and aligned with your business strategy, mission critical priorities, and improvement initiatives.
    

3. Design and Deliver a Leaders in Action Program
   Teach, coach, and enable leaders to make decisions that add measurable value to the bottom line. Leaders in Action is a six-to-twelve month action learning Leadership Development Program for a small group (12-16) of high potential managers. They work in teams to envision a key, enterprise-wide project that can significantly move a strategy forward, increase revenue, and/or decrease costs. Next they sell the project to senior executives and then implement it. The program more than pays for itself.  See a sample client case study.
    

4. Implement a Company-Wide Performance Assessment and Management System
   Drive visibility and accountability while supporting your key initiatives. Using proven motivational theories and practices, start at the individual level and roll up into real-time 360-degree assessments, employee feedback, and performance dashboards.
