Strategic Storylines
A narrative framework to help teams align around what matters most and tell the strategy story in a way others beyond the team can carry forward.
Use this when:
You need to translate insight into direction
Your team is aligned in pieces, but the full picture still feels fuzzy
You’re building momentum across teams and want a story that travels
Tips:
Anchor in reality. The best strategy stories don’t start with where you’re going. They start with where your customers are.
Think system-wide. Great stories anticipate disruption, account for constraints, and invite contribution.
Say what others can repeat. If it’s too complex to retell, it’s not aligned enough yet.
Every part connects. A single storyline matters. Multiple storylines make a movement. Look for ways to thread yours into the bigger picture.
