Enterprise-Level Competitive Strategy. Built for Companies That Have Outgrown the Group Model.
Two to four days of full strategic facilitation through all seven strategy questions — with a documented competitive strategy your leadership team can execute from day one.
Book a Discovery CallThis is not a workshop. It's a working session.
Most strategy retreats produce a slide deck that sits in a shared drive and gets reviewed once a year. This engagement produces a documented competitive strategy — built in real time, with your entire leadership team in the room.
Craig facilitates your leadership team through all seven strategy questions in sequence. Context first. Vision second. Value proposition third — the hinge everything else turns on. Capabilities, activities, results, and improvement after that.
By the end of the engagement your team has done the work — not watched someone present it to them.
"Do you have the courage to be the only one doing it?"
— Craig Paxson, Strategy Architect
What the engagement covers.
Every engagement moves through the same seven questions in the same sequence. The sequence matters — each question sets up the next.
What is the environment in which we operate? Competitors, market growth rate, trends, and threats. Craig brings research to the table — your team doesn't start from scratch.
What do we want to accomplish? Only meaningful after understanding the context. Goals set in a vacuum are wish lists.
How do we win in the marketplace? The hinge of the entire system. Everything before it sets it up. Everything after it executes it.
What do we need to succeed? Build what the value proposition requires — not what's easiest to build.
What do we do every day? Translate strategy into daily execution across the organization.
Are we getting the outcomes we want? Measure what matters — not what's easy to measure.
How do we get better? 90-day improvement cycles built into the operating rhythm.
What you walk away with.
A documented competitive strategy — not a summary of what was discussed. Every decision your team made during the engagement is captured, organized, and ready to execute.
The strategy lives inside the Visionary Velocity app — visible, executable, and accessible to your entire leadership team from day one. Not in a slide deck. Not in a shared drive. In the operating system your team will actually use.
Who this is for.
This engagement is built for companies doing $20M or more in revenue that need enterprise-level competitive strategy — and a facilitator who can hold a leadership team accountable to making real decisions, not just discussing them.
It's not for companies that want a facilitator to validate what they've already decided. It's for companies that want to find the position their competitors have overlooked — and build around it.
The first step is a conversation.
Every engagement is scoped based on the size of your leadership team, the complexity of your market, and what you need to walk away with. The discovery call is where we figure out whether this is the right fit — and what the right engagement looks like.
