A strategic plan, which is just the first step in the transformation, helps you define and share the direction your company will take in the next three to five years. It includes your company’s vision and mission statements, but goes a lot further than just these. It defines goals, and the actions you’ll take to achieve those goals. All of these aligned with the gap study between current and desired positioning. However a strategic transformation goes much deeper than strategic planning. It is about vertical deployment of macro corporate strategies down to process daily routines and tactics. All must go in the same direction.
