PLANNING & INTEGRATED ACCOUNTABILITY MEASURES


The highest quality leaders influence the direction of their private or public organization with great care.

"First, the smartest leaders Think Ahead.  They apply their own natural smarts, and those of the people around them, to creating a distinctive point-of-view about the future...the best leaders gather advance intelligence from reliable sources and use it to find great new opportunities" Masters Forum 1999

The best leaders..."set direction by aligning goals, programs, programs, policies and priorities..." CAREI, University of Minnesota 2007


MACY LEADERSHIP GROUP, INC., helps you plan for the future through:

• asking the right questions so you will be doing the right things in the future--not just doing things right;

• continually refreshing and extending your intellectual reach (Masters Forum, 1999) by providing information from arenas that often are not considered to be of relevance to organizations e.g., economic trends, demographic information, environmental perspectives, cultural perspectives and impact of innovations;

• providing discipline and intentionality by focusing on the "main thing"--the purpose of the organization (Jim Collins);

• helping people serving in different roles to provide high quality leadership from their "seat" (Jim Collins) supporting without interfering with the work of others;

• helping you create understandable directions designed to help you achieve the mission of the organization;

• advising you in the development of a multi-dimensional accountability system.

 

Quality planning also involves the incorporation of relevant data collection, interpretation and analysis.  Leaders provide evidence of the rightness of the path by taking data informed, mission driven action.  

The development of multi-dimensional accountability measures are part of the experience of the leader of MACY LEADERSHIP GROUP INC. Designing a system of measures like those advocated by Kaplan and Norton in their "Balanced Scorecard" help organizations link short-term actions with long term strategy.  We can help you with this important step in planning and seizing the future. 

 

 

How may we help you set wise directions for the future informed by data and driven by your organization's mission?
