Strategic Fitness for a
Non-Stable World
Strategic Readiness Workshop
Testing Strategy Under Conditions of Ongoing Change
Strategy does not fail slowly.
It becomes misaligned with conditions.
In environments of structural instability, strategic viability depends on the organisation’s ability to sense change, test assumptions, and adjust priorities before value erodes.
The Strategic Readiness Workshop is a disciplined, executive-level intervention designed to assess and strengthen your organisation’s strategic fitness.
It examines whether your current strategy remains viable under immediate and emerging conditions , and clarifies the capability, governance, and operating rhythm shifts required to sustain performance.
What this workshop addresses
This workshop enables leadership teams to:
Pressure-test current strategy against emerging conditions
Identify where strategic assumptions may no longer hold
Map where value may be emerging, shifting, or eroding
Identify capability alignment gaps constraining execution
Strengthen leadership alignment and decision coherence
Clarify priority capability investment and resource allocation
This provides a clear, evidence-based starting point for strengthening organisational strategic fitness.
Diagnostic-led approach
Prior to the workshop, your leadership team completes the Strategic Fitness Diagnostic. This is a view of your organisation’s capacity to operate effectively in conditions of permanent structural instability
This Evaluates whether your organisation can:
Identify shifting conditions and patterns early.
Make high-quality strategic decisions under pressure
Adapt direction, influence and realign teams when assumptions no longer hold
Protect existing value while identifying emerging opportunity
Align capability, systems and agency with strategic intent
Maintain momentum and progress rather than lack coherence and stall during change
The workshop builds directly on these insights.
This ensures the conversation is grounded in evidence of how strategy is actually practiced not how it is intended or documented.
It allows the session to focus on the specific strategic, governance, and capability shifts required to sustain effectiveness under changing conditions.
What This Workshop Examines
The session explores five core strategic dimensions:
1. Conditions & Shared Sense-Making
Whether the organisation maintains a current and shared view of emerging conditions and their implications.
2. Strategy as Practice
Whether strategy is treated as an adaptive set of decisions, not a fixed plan.
3. Decision Quality & Feedback Loops
Whether decisions are made at the right level and adjusted as evidence changes.
4. Value Under Changing Conditions
Whether value erosion and trade-offs are surfaced early.
5. Capability Alignment
Whether critical capabilities are aligned to what matters now and what is emerging next.
What You Will Leave With
By the end of the session, your leadership team will have:
Clear visibility of strategic strengths and exposure areas
Clarity on which assumptions still hold, and which do not
Insight into value at risk and emerging opportunity
Alignment on priority shifts required
Identified capability gaps and governance adjustments
Agreed practical next steps to strengthen strategic fitness
