Most businesses do not have a goal-setting problem.

They have an alignment and execution problem.

In this short solo episode, business coach Peter Boolkah explains why there is no universally perfect set of business goals—and how to connect long-term strategy with the work being completed today.

Effective business planning operates at three levels:

Your three-to-five-year goals define the destination.

Your annual priorities determine what must change next.

Your 13-week sprints turn those priorities into execution.

If those three levels are not aligned, the company may be working extremely hard while moving towards the wrong destination.

Peter also explains why repeatedly rewriting the plan does not solve poor execution.

You’ll discover:

Writing an impressive strategic plan is the easy part.

The results are created during the 65 working days of each 13-week sprint.

If the company cannot execute at that level, its chances of achieving the long-term vision are drastically reduced.

The answer is not another prettier plan.

It is better alignment, accountability, learning and execution.
