Where you’re going

Plane

When you write it down, it clarifies. On the way from brain to whiteboard to page, it gets embellished, enhanced. It takes on complexit, maturity, it evolves, is filtered, organised, simplified. It’s a map.

Now, you know where you’re going.

The real benefit of a knowing where you’re going … it helps you communicate where you’re going.

The more visual the better, because anything’s more engaging than a spreadsheet. Like a real map. You can imagine and discuss how to get from here to there and how to overcome the hills and the valleys in between.

And track progress.

Progress is obvious when it’s measured against something visual. Without that, who knows how you’re doing. With that, we all know – and we have a mechanic that helps us understand the swings and slings of the day to day ruckus.

Skippy strategy: Work out the roadmap, put it in plain sight, keep track.
