Strategic Ascent helped us shift that mindset. The methodology gave us the alignment we needed, not just within the leadership team but across the entire company. The result: We began to consistently focus on what truly mattered for growth.
Strategic Ascent’s governance plan was key—meeting every six weeks forced us to step out of the day-to-day grind and dedicate time to working on the business. Just sticking to that plan ensured we didn’t get sucked back into the weeds.
As a result, we’ve been able to achieve the Rule of 40 more consistently, which is considered best-in-class performance. Our leadership team has become much stronger and more strategic because of the process.
I'm also a member of the CEO Collective, and the combination of these two programs is powerful. It provides more accountability to help me make sure I’m sticking to my strategy, and my peers in the Collective give me insightful feedback on goals and my executive team.
The structured strategic planning and candid peer feedback I receive through Katahdin Group has been an accelerator for me and my company. Both have had a huge hand in my success.
