What can we learn from the barnstorming era to inform our modern-day approach to entrepreneurship and technology?
Having a future state strategy is crucial for any business transformation project as it provides a clear vision of what the organization wants to achieve in the long term. A well-defined future state strategy outlines the goals, objectives, and key performance indicators that the company should aim for in order to achieve success. Done thoughtfully, this process can take from a couple of weeks to a few months depending on the size of your business and the depth of the initiative.
However, it is important to remember that a strategy is not a one-time exercise, but rather an iterative process that needs to be continuously refined based on feedback and results. Action and implementation are equally important as having a well-crafted strategy, as they turn ideas into tangible outcomes.
