Meeting Overview- Quick pre-view of the Shark Tank Program.

Presented by: Mike Richardson, CEO Consultant

Resource Presentation for Shark Tank
Traditional strategic planning doesn’t work very well these days with the speed of business, pace of change and flow of disruptive turbulence accelerating all the time. Not least of all, traditional approaches are far too comfortable, planning forwards from the present as an extrapolation of the past. Especially with the uncertainties of a possible recession and election result that we face.

• Training your team to get comfortable being uncomfortable. One of his favorite quotes is, “The task of imagination is to do the work of crisis without the crisis!” (Roberto Unger). You should be shining a light into dark corners of conversation-flow that you aren’t having.
• Mike will give us the tools for that, engaging you in beginning to plan for a range of futures A to F, including being recession-ready at all times, as the beginnings of an ongoing and dynamic Agile Strategy Process.

Resource Presentation for Shark Tank
