The Strategic Touchstone product is different from the traditional strategic plan. Long and detailed strategic plans quickly become dated as an organization moves forward, deals with emerging issues and changes in the environment.

The Strategic Touchstone is a brief document (5 to 7 pages) that is created to frame the strategies and action plans of the organization.

It is not a formula product and will look different for each organization, but it will contain those elements of your “journey” that stand the test of time.

It includes mission and vision, but also offers overarching strategic directions, guiding principles and values, attributes the organization must have to achieve its intentions, and an explicit commitment to advancing a culture and climate that will facilitate success.
