What Is an OGSM Model?
OGSM stands for Objectives, Goals, Strategies and Measures. It is a strategic planning model used to turn a company’s vision into an actionable business and marketing strategy. With this tool, companies can understand what they want to achieve and how to get there. It does this by helping you identify your goals, breaking them down into measurable goals, defining strategies for achieving them, and suggesting measures to track progress.
How to Use the OGSM Model with Creately?
- Select a Creately OGSM template and share with your team to get started. Focus on clearly defining goals, objectives, strategies, and actions.
- Objective: The leaders of the organization must clearly determine what is the overall objective of the new strategy and how the strategy contributes to the ultimate objective of the organization. It is important that the objective of the strategy is specific to the organization. In addition, when formulating the objective of the strategy, consideration should also be given to the steps that can be taken to achieve the objectives. Example: Create an engaging customer experience that drives repeat sales.
- Goals: In this phase, the goal can be broken down into smaller, more achievable goals. More specifically, they should be goals whose progress can be easily monitored and recorded. The lens should be large enough that it can be broken down into several smaller lenses. When setting these goals, it is important to think beyond sales figures and bottom line, and consider innovative product developments, streamlined processes, etc. Example: Update the website to include useful content that will improve the customer experience.
- Strategies: It is crucial to create an action plan to achieve the goals set in the previous phase. This process takes into account the amount and type of resources available, the project schedule, and marketing and production techniques. This step of the process takes a lot of time because it is important to have very clear and detailed steps in order to progress towards the overall goal. For example: Use articles to get customers to learn about new technologies, including our products.
- Measures: In order to track progress toward long-term goals, it is important to measure and compare the current state of progress toward goal achievement with the timeline developed. How progress is measured will determine how the process will change over time. For example: write six new articles this quarter to post on our website and promote through social media.
- Once finalized, export the diagram in various formats including CSV, SVG, PDF, PNG, and many more.
