Most important to the development and execution of strategy is evaluating whether the strategy had a resulting impact. Did the organization realize its desired future state? Did the promises made at the outset result in actual changes? Were the changes supported through new behaviours and measurable outcomes?
There are several dimensions that must be considered to evaluate the impact of strategy. The evaluation approach considered as part of strategy development plays a critical role. So do the feasibility studies and business cases that are considered in starting up individual initiatives. Finally, the assessment of operational impacts—in terms of results, satisfaction and impacts—make a key contribution to understanding how the change was finally implemented. Together, these provide the basis for evaluating whether the strategy you have defined led to the impacts you desired.
We help to develop meaningful and clear ways of assessing the degree to which your strategic goals translate into meaningful results. Whether an on-going means of operational assessment or a periodic audit of progress in working towards realizing your strategy, we make sure you have an accurate, realistic and objective assessment of where you are in your strategy journey.
The result is appropriate and realistic insights into how far you have come, the effectiveness of your current efforts and the steps remaining to fully realize your desired future state.
