ARE YOU TOO INVOLVED (TO SELL)?

one-page business strategy?
ORGANISE, FOCUS & FUND
Each "That's us" is 1 point.
1 or more points means you can benefit from OGSM.
1) We have a vision and a strategic direction, but not everyone knows how to turn it into action or use it to secure funding.
2) Our efforts feel scattered, everyone is working towards their own goals, without a unified focus or funding plan; sometimes I wonder if we all work for the same organisation.
3) We have ambitions, but progress is slow, and we struggle to secure the necessary funding to grow.
​
4) We are hesitant to prioritise, leading to many small, unfocused efforts instead of targeted growth.​
​
5) We react to problems as they arise and don’t have a proactive plan for securing funding or avoiding roadblocks.

GROW & MATURE
Each "That's us" is 1 point.
4 or less points means you can benefit from OGSM.
1) My business clearly differentiates from competitors, and this differentiation is sustainable.
​
2) I have clearly defined a few essential long-term goals, and planned how to achieve them.
3) Looking back over the last 365 days, I can confirm my business is moving in the direction I planned.
4) I am keeping track of how my organisation is progressing and adjust strategy and actions monthly or quarterly, based on these performance metrics.
​
5) I am able to anticipate changes in the market/industry and act accordingly.

​
REDUCE & SELL
Each "That's us" is 1 point.
4 or less points means you can benefit from OGSM.
1) Our business is financially stable and well-positioned for growth or acquisition, without relying on my constant input.
2) These days, I am only involved on a visionary level. The execution of ideas is taken care of by my team.
​
3) My teams are self-sufficient in day-to-day operations, making decisions independently while keeping me informed. This allows me to focus on strategic growth or transition planning.​
​​
4) Everyone understands the long-term goals and is proactively working to achieve them, even without my guidance.
​​​
5) Key relationships (clients, suppliers, partners) are managed by others in the team, not by me.
