Strategy Execution

As long as leadership is difficult, it performs poorly. Leadership should be made intentionally demanding.

What we focus on

Our pledge

Strategy is reflected in everyday actions and the actions support the objectives

Common language and concepts across different organisational levels.

Shared direction and enthusiasm is strengthened throughout the personnel

Every manager knows how to lead the strategy within their team.

Policies and practices become embedded in teams

Everyone in the organisation knows how they are implementing the strategy.

More development projects completed

The activities, that support the implementation of strategy, are managed through indicators.

A proven approach

This is how we proceed

Every partnership is different, but with this model we have helped many companies take their strategy from paper into guided execution.

Management team bootcamp: building the concept

We conduct thorough background research to understand the current state.

We organise a 1,5-day bootcamp with the management team to build a growth story and roadmap. We ensure that the team dynamics, management system and critical thinking are guided by the strategy.

Train the Trainer: skills and tools for follow-through

We harness middle management or key people to lead strategic priorities through the organisation.

Operations Centre: verification of results

We will build a way of managing and tracking the metrics of what is being done to ensure that the strategy-led turns into action across the organization.

Mediatization: communication's support

We help management to make the strategy a talking point for staff and partners.

"We set out to find a way in which we could work together to take strategy to everyday life. How the day will change at 8:00 on Monday when the new strategy is launched. Trainers' House has an interesting way of taking strategy into story, story into doing, doing into habits and habits into results. We found this a systematic and fascinating way, which is why we set out to work with Trainers' House",

Stefan Damlin Managing Director, Vaasa Electricity

"We wanted to develop our current strategy work in a more systematic and concrete way, and we needed an external perspective. We need a clear red thread to lean on when possible conflicts and choices come up in everyday life. A well thought-out strategy, understood by the whole organisation, is the answer ."

Kari Salovaara Chief Financial Officer, Woikoski

"We wanted to retain the characteristics of a small and agile Ponsse. This desire led to our decision to take leadership and management to the next level. Management practices have already been changed across the board. We have gained clarity in the practices, agendas and communication of joint management meetings ",

Juho Nummela Managing Director, Ponsse

Woittava Woikoski 2030 strategia arkeen

Yli 140-vuotias kotimainen kaasuvalmistaja Woikoski on perinteikäs perheyritys. Pitkä historia ja syvät kulttuurin juuret eivät tee muutoksista helppoja – mutta muutos oli välttämätön.

Praecom Group - Uuden strategian todeksi eläminen nopeammin ja varmemmin

Älykkäitä työ- ja asiakasympäristöjä toteuttavalla Praecomilla oli käsissään ongelma. Kasvuyrityksessä huomattiin, että strategiset suuntaviivat tuntuivat löytyvän vain toimitusjohtaja Miika Liljedahlin päästä. Ympärillä olevat kollegat eivät kuitenkaan olleet ajatustenlukijoita – strategia täytyi saada siirrettyä henkilöstölle. Samalla toimitusjohtajan hallitsemaa päätöksentekokykyä haluttiin hajauttaa.

Jyväskylän Yliopisto – Strategian rakentaminen sidosryhmien avulla

Mitä tehdä, kun sekä toimintaympäristö että organisaation rakenne muuttuvat? Silloin voi olla hyvä hetki miettiä strategiaa uusiksi. Näin toimi myös Jyväskylän yliopiston liikuntatieteellinen tiedekunta. Laitosrakenteesta luopuminen ja maailman muutokset aiheuttivat tarpeen tarkastella strategiaa koko yhteisön kanssa.

Eerikkilä – Strategia vastaamaan toimintaympäristöä

Eerikkilä on suomalaisen jalkapallon ja salibandyn koti – huippu-urheilun tarpeisiin luotu paikka, jossa myös yrityspäättäjät ja yksityishenkilöt voivat pysähtyä, latautua ja nostaa tasoaan. Viime vuosina Eerikkilä on uudistanut omaa toimintaansa paljon, ja tuoreimman strategiakierroksen piti olla vain kevyt freesaus ja kirkastus. Varmuuden vuoksi oman tekemisen ydintä haluttiin kuitenkin haastaa.

Strategy only comes to life through storytelling

You've probably heard many stories in your life that have changed your thinking and behaviour in one way or another. Strategy can also only be realised through a story.

We help companies to build a story from the next step, a story that staff can help to make happen. Only a story can move, touch and change thinking, which ultimately changes behaviour.

It is through story that you can identify what the most important action is. Whether it's leadership, customer service, product development or sales, identifying what's critical to do enables it to happen. Only action can be led.

It is possible to turn action into habits. It is first a matter of starting and sustaining. If we were to open the calendars of five of your people today, how would your strategy appear there?

In the end, habits become results, because results obey doing.

Frequently asked questions

The implementation and further development of the strategy is continuous, because change is constant. Typically, we work with management teams and middle management for about a year to roll out the concept.

In the first phase, the biggest time investment for the management team in the project is the 1.5-day bootcamp training. In addition, the members of the management team will participate in a 30-60 minute individual interview and answer a pre-interview questionnaire.

We always select the most suitable team of experienced coaches and project managers for the assignment. The composition of the team is chosen according to your situation and needs.

Background work can be efficiently managed remotely. However, we recommend that the 1,5 days of work of the Steering Group be organised as a face-to-face meeting, preferably away from the everyday environment. New thinking is generated in a new environment - and that is why we also recommend this for these events.

The size of the investment depends on the scope of the cooperation and the selected solution. Projects usually start at approximately €17,500. The final price will always depend on the needs and objectives. We therefore recommend that you contact us so that we can assess the right solutions and investment for you.
