Simplify Strategy.

What is OGSM?
OGSM stands for Objectives, Goals, Strategies, and Measures. It is a very simple approach to strategic planning, but it packs a massive punch. Using the OGSM approach to strategy helps you define WHAT you want to achieve and HOW you are going to get there - all on one page.
Why OGSM?
Clarity
Simple one-page overview connects key objectives & goals with initiatives and actions.
Alignment
Team involvement creates buy-in and cascading of the strategy throughout the organisation.
Execution
Strategies are clearly connected with actions and accountability to ensure plan becomes reality.
