Fast-Track Strategic Planning Think Tank™
Finally, an opportunity to bring radically advanced thinking to your
strategic plan with the Fast-Track Strategic Planning Think Tank™.
Think Tank I - September 22-23, 2008
Thnk Tank II - September 25-26, 2008
Chicago, IL (Oak Brook Hills Marriott Resort)
Every year we receive call after call asking for help with strategic planning.
The answer is “no” to all but one bank each year. Quite frankly, there just isn’t
enough time.
That said, it makes us crazy to see banks spend thousands of dollars and even
more in wasted high-level management time on dysfunctional and antiquated
strategic planning processes of old-school “Mission—SWOT—Initiatives.” It just
doesn’t do much good, and it NEVER creates a powerful breakthrough.
We’re offering a Strategic Planning Think Tank™ that we guarantee will
forever challenge the way banks plan.
GUARANTEE:
You will walk out of this session with a template of actionable ideas, key initiatives, and plans to implement that will make the impossible possible.
It will be the best strategic planning meeting you have ever attended. No exceptions. |
But it’s NOT for everyone:
- It’s NOT for banks that don’t want a substantial
improvement in profitability next year.
- It’s NOT for banks that are setting their sites for
mediocre improvements.
- It’s NOT for banks that have no intention to be one
of the best performing banks—both in the areas of
organic growth and profitability.
- It’s NOT for banks that have not demonstrated huge
breakthroughs in the last year or that are not already
one of the country’s top performers.
- And it’s definitely NOT for banks that are unwilling or
unable to think about setting a whole new course for
banking that makes today’s model seem antiquated.
This session is only for you IF:
- Your people WILL come without the “we’ve got it all figured out” attitude. Arrogance is a prime
building block of demise.
- You guarantee your people will commit to some intense pre-work, including reading approximately
four books and other projects. (Unprepared people will quickly find themselves lost.)
- You understand that this is an application program. We know from indications of interest that we
will have more applicants than will be admitted. We’re looking for diversity in the group; a good
balance of banks that have different areas of expertise, that can and will teach others their best
practices—and have a history of relentless execution plans.
- You will have coached your team prior to their arrival so that they are willing to be childlike in
nature: wide open to learning.
What questions will you have
answered in this seminar?
- What is the proven formula for the fastest path to more profitable growth?
- What are the cutting-edge principles being applied in the most profitable companies outside of banking that could be brought into your institution?
- How can you create systems to assure rapid and guaranteed success of the implementation of your strategies?
- What are other attendees, only from the other hit-the-cover-off-the-ball banks, doing to be in the top 5%?
- Most important, what WILL you do next year to radically
improve your performance—no matter what the economy throws your way?
“The strategy of my coach and I was that we looked at pictures of all the best
pole-vaulters from around the world, and we took the best parts
from them, and we created a person that had never existed. We then
started to work toward being such a person.” -- Sergei Bubka
Only 15 banks accepted.
