What Is Strategy Mapping?
Strategy mapping helps to identify the primary strategic goals and objectives of an organization and the ways and means on how to achieve them.
How to Create a Strategy Map?
- Identify the need to create a strategy map - Understand and identify your need to create a strategy map. For example, to connect the vision, mission and values of the organization along with the goals and objectives of the organization for the upcoming year.
- Gather information - Gather information on strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats and other environmental factors that might impact your organizational goals and objectives. Document the past performance of the organization, the desired state and the gaps identified by your team.
- Prioritise strategic goals and objectives - Due to the finite resources and time available, you need to prioritize the strategic goals and objectives that would get you the most suitable business outcome and ROI. You can use simple numbering and workflows to create the hierarchy of milestones.
- Visualize the strategy map - Use Creately’s strategy map templates to visually represent the strategic goals and objectives of your organization along with the ways and means you plan to achieve the said goals and objectives. You can use the information you gathered in the previous steps and then style and add colour themes to add deeper meaning to each phase of the strategy while delegating the tasks among each functional area or team member.
- Share for collaboration and review among team members - You can invite your colleagues and cross-functional teams to further add their facts and findings to your strategy map. You can also embed the strategy map on presentations and documents or download it as a PDF, image, or SVG.
