The big secret to strategic planning and execution
If there is one thing you must know about executing your strategic plan, it’s that you must reflect on how you can improve in your business. This is where you take a look to the past so you can change the future direction of your business.
And you must have goalkeeping records and insights, and then be able to create new goals based on the business’s future direction, what you want to achieve and how you’ll get to the next level.

Strategic planning and execution: The 7 secrets to executing your strategic plan
While having a strategic plan is a good thing and the only way to go, it’s also important that you execute your plan. And now is the best time to start.
So take a look at my template, download it and start using it.
There are 7 areas you need to implement to have success with your strategic plan.
1. Mission and Vision:
Reflect on your mission and business vision. Are they still current and do they still resonate with you and your audience? This also includes your core values. Do your values still align with you and your business?
2. Focus areas:
Now is the ideal time to start planning 2022. Ask yourself, what’s the focus for this next year and what are you planning? Also, do some reflection on what you did best in this last year and what you need to improve going into the new year.
3. Goals:
What are your financial goals, customer goals, internal operational goals and people development goals. You will have short-term goals to take you through to the end of this financial year and you will also put goals in place for the next calendar year.
4. KPIs:
Under each of the goals sections of your strategic planning template, set KPIs. Which one comes first, then next and so on.
5. Priorities:
After you have set your KPIS, set out your list of priorities. What do you want to achieve first and what do you need to start working on now?
6. Person responsible for the task/s:
Who’s responsible for each of the tasks under the priorities list? Put a name beside each task so your execution team knows exactly what to do.
7. Implementation:
This is the basic concept on how you will execute the goals and KPIs based on the priorities you’ve set to achieve your goals.
