Introducing the Play-to-Win Strategy Canvas 2.0

A visual tool for team facilitation of strategy development has been developed by Matthew E. May, author of Winning the Brain Game, which captures the entire strategy formulation process in a fun, effective and creative way. The tool includes guiding questions and tips for each key stage of strategy development and is available for free under the Creative Commons License. The process involves printing the canvas, using Post-It notes of different colors as well as a sharpie to work through the current strategy and identify the key issue, drafting a new strategy, and identifying the most worrisome assumption as well as crafting a lean experiment to test that assumption.
