Dynamic Scenario Development

We facilitate creative and critical thinking skills to determine potential strategic shifts or new directions. We assist in creating processes to identify external trigger events and internal issues which require a strategic course correction for incorporation into future planning efforts.  The world’s dynamism cannot be a block to strategy development!

Real-time Insights

Real-time event detection requires knowing what to monitor and who will receive the information. VPI Strategies creates a rigorous internal process used to assist your organization in identifying potential problems internally and detecting external trigger events. The world is moving so quickly, the assumptions upon which your strategic plan is built may change. Rather than shelving the plan, you will identify what needs to change and how to make it happen without throwing the strategy out with the bathwater.

Performance Metrics 

VPI Strategies identifies and tests the key performance drivers linked to your strategy and designs performance metrics that give you true insight that goes beyond the numbers. From simple to comprehensive balanced scorecards, we can help you identify the metrics and create the processes to insure the entire organization is linked and synched to them. Peter Drucker said, “What gets measure, gets done!”

Change Leadership Coaching

Every strategic shift results in some change. Accepting and managing change is a personal choice with organizational implications. Not only must leaders deal with change themselves but provide change leadership for all. One-on-one change leadership coaching allows the leader to recognize change for what it is and make the most of it for themselves and their staff. Change has to start with leadership first!

Navigating Change Training

VPI Strategies provides a more strategic approach for dealing with change. This resilient approach for accepting and managing change reinforces a resourceful frame of mind, strategic thinking skills and a process to deal with the change cycle. It’s foolhardy to believe it’s all just going to work out. We need to be trained on how to navigate the process.
