Why Do Strategies Fail?

Build a Better Strategic Plan

Research shows that anywhere from 50% to 90% of strategic plans fail to deliver meaningful results — not exactly a glowing endorsement for strategic planning.

Is it that the wrong solutions get chosen? Or that the plans aren’t implemented well? Both can be true, but in our experience, the real problem starts earlier: the leaders never agreed on the core issues to address.

Sometimes, everyone assumes they see the situation the same way. Sometimes they don’t take the time to agree. Sometimes, it isn’t safe to share conflicting views, so differences are explained away. The result is a mishmash of “imperatives” and “initiatives” that add to everyone’s workload but don’t connect to growth.

Sound familiar? When everyone wants to create something better but nothing changes, it’s time for a different approach.
