Annual Planning

Create value through alignment

Lack of executive alignment and leadership focus are two of the biggest hindrances to value creation. Too often, CEOs and CROs attempt to place too many bets in an effort to hedge, which leads to unfocused resources or disagreement about the existing or future state. Hedging causes a lack of clarity about the growth strategy throughout the organization.


No matter where you are in your planning cycle, SBI has developed a collection of resources to align the leadership team in the direction of creating value.
