Many companies might have a plan, but some plans work better than others. Focus matters; having an ideology, strategy, and execution goals in one plan enables leaders to focus and achieve results.  By bringing together the ideology (Core Values & Core Purpose), Strategy (How you're different) and execution together into a logical fit, you avoid just having a list of goals with different time horizons.

Also, we discuss how people make mistakes with the one page plan.   ----- * Do you love The Growth Whisperers and want to see our smiling faces?
