Go For Bold

How to create powerful strategy in uncertain times

Description

Achieve your organisation’s best possible future with this new approach to designing simple and powerful strategy. When did we lose our nerve for future planning? We all know strategy is important, but it’s not easy to come up with fresh ideas needed for success, let alone bring them to life. Uncertainty about the future, the pressure of competition, risk aversion, and those boring planning meetings we’re forced to sit through sap our confidence and enthusiasm and produce timid templates for maintaining status quo. This book offers a new approach to designing strategy. It shows how we can inspire others to think differently, work through challenging issues constructively, and ultimately become committed to an ambitious, shared future for our organisations. Leading strategist Rosie Yeo reveals how you can find answers to your big questions by unleashing your team’s innate creativity to hone in on what is most important and map a clear pathway to success. For leaders, aspiring leaders and anyone who needs a future plan, Go For Bold offers a fresh take on the creative collaboration needed to design, implement and achieve your organisation’s best possible future.
