Strategic Planning at Work: Real-World Use Cases

Strategic Planning at Work: Real-World Use Cases

According to a recent survey by The Economist Intelligence Unit, 90% of senior executives fail to reach their strategic goals due to poor implementation. One significant reason for this is that many employees don't understand the company's strategy, with only 16% of team leaders and supervisors grasping how major priorities connect to strategic initiatives. Planview's work and resource management solution for strategic planning addresses this issue by creating roadmaps that can be managed, tracked and executed organization-wide. By facilitating coordination between strategy, work, people, technology, and outcomes, organizations can continually assess and evolve their capabilities, increase profit margins, mitigate risk, and decrease costs.
