Up Your Strategy Game

One of our top strategy experts, Steve Haarstad, has been helping companies improve their profitability through strategic planning for more than a decade. At our next workshop, he’ll show how strategic planning will improve decision making and streamline daily operations.

“The right strategy, implemented correctly, can really help companies clarify where they’re trying to take their business and how they can build and expand,” Steve says.

You can see how by attending his upcoming workshop from 8:30 a.m. – 10:30 a.m. Tuesday, May 7 at the Shoreview Community Center. You’ll see how Steve emphasizes both planning and execution. He’ll highlight the key elements of successful strategic plans, stressing that simple, purposeful plans can help all levels of your organization understand the goals of the business and how to reach them.

Great companies carry their focus in strategic planning through the execution stage, developing a regular rhythm to implementation. Steve will explain that how a plan is implemented is just as important as its content.

At the workshop, Steve will show you:
• Why strategic planning and thinking shouldn’t be solely for the CEO
• How to incorporate a strategic rhythm into regular business activities
• How to simplify strategic plans to provide clarity for all levels of your business

In addition to these foundational ideas for building strategy, Steve offers practical tips, such as how to time team meetings and how to create simple and clear messages.

I hope you can join us in Shoreview for the in-person workshop.
