How often do you give yourself time to step away to think about how you do things, where you're heading to next, and your ultimate (within a reasonable timeframe) goals? Matthew Hook interviewed the excellent Bruce Daisley this week for LookUP and one of the concepts he talked about was building slack into your business. (Important to note, not Slack the platform that eats away at our sanity, the good kind of slack that gives you time to think). Our last month on LookUP has been focused on the concept of how you can be more effective in Annual Planning. One of the things we've found is that all of the time focused on 'how do we move forward' often happens at one moment in the year for businesses (e.g. when financial planning needs to happen). But what if we built in the slack required to do this on a more regular basis? There are so many good pieces this month on how to improve your planning process, whether you're a big business with a more formal planning process, or whether you're an independent / startup who needs to make a case for how you evolve. We've summarised them all in one place for you, alongside some of our expert pieces from Lianre Robinson Kian Bakhtiari simeon duckworth and Mel McVeigh Link, as ever, in the comments How have you got better at planning for the future in business? We'd love to hear your thoughts ?? #futureplanning #strategicplanning #annualplanning
