60 Minute Strategic Plan (60MSP) launched the “Strat Talk” blog today, just in time to help businesses plan for their share of $50 billion in federal tax incentives President Bush planned to sign today in a $168 billion economic stimulus package. The strategic planning blog will address challenges businesses face today and tackle how decision-makers can survive and thrive in any economic environment.
60MSP is a planning and problem-solving solution that uses an easy-to-implement strategic plan to set businesses on course to achieve revenue, profit and market-share goals. Its creator, John E. Johnson, 60MSP chief executive officer, is the Strat Talk blogger and draws on nearly 50 years of effective strategic planning successes to share his insights and answer reader questions and comments.
“Dire predictions for 2008 are causing businesses to hope for nothing more than ‘making it through’ the year. Making it through to what? How? Identify a goal or ideal outcome and then achieve it,” Johnson said. “The key to success is a quick but well thought-out plan that you’ll actually implement in the real world with your available resources, including these promised federal tax incentives.”
The blog will explore the real-world challenges and opportunities readers are experiencing right now and determine how a fast but effective plan can help. A strategic plan enables executives and managers to articulate the best outcome and align and focus limited resource to achieve those goals. Strategic focus and re-focus is the key to success, Johnson said.
