Elaborate

The Agreement has been reached. Swiss Managemenrt Services and Client are aligned. The Pricing Model has been defined (by body, per day, per  milestone, etc.). Let’s fasten the seat belts. We ’re taking off to a good start!

■ It’s time to engage the Project Team and brief it
■ Let’s open the war-room and set up the working tools
■ The Roadmap and the Waypoints must be finalized
■ Following the preliminary analysis, both internal and on the market, a deeper diving might be needed, acquiring further data or considering more information.
■ Analytical Models, Matrix and Maps are prepared. The SWOT Analysis is prepared too.
■ To ensure that this phase will come to an end, a deadline for data collection is defined. In absence, data-collection might last forever due to the perfectionism-syndrome
■ The creation of the Strategy starts. It’s a fusion that melt the results of all Analysis with Experience and Intuition. If there is any outstanding ability to feel the business this is the time to take it out. This is the time where a special chef will do his magic, creating a unique plate using what apparently seems just a common recipe.
■ Documents start now to be shared, based on the waypoints agreed with the client. His feedbacks and many cross checks will drive the fine tuning of the strategy.
