What are Game Plans?

Game Plans are used by teams to communicate how they will execute and deliver their part of the organization's strategy and transformations.

Why use Game Plans?

Game Plan provides structure and focus for the teams to achieve their goals by helping the teams to:

  • Build their identity and ways of working to ensure improved effectiveness.
  • Structure their thinking to interpret strategy and needs into measurable outcomes, and manageable milestones and tasks.
  • Identify and manage obstacles and unclear dependencies to reduce hassle in the organization.
