The
budget meeting
Even in large, wealthy corporations, very few senior
leaders have discretionary funds. The plan will unfold
within the budget, and folks always say "you cannot
predict tomorrow." A key to successful strategy
formulation is being flexible and clearly assigning responsibilities.
Flexibility
- How long until the strategy pays for itself?
- How and how often will we get feedback on the plans
progress?
- Is the plan at the right level of detail?
- How much contingency funding needs to be set aside?
Accountability
- Are the goals explicit, clear?
- Has the responsibility and accountability been delegated?
- Does the strategy align with our incentive system?
- Have the key players committed to the plan "eyeball
to eyeball?"
