Whether you need to cover the full life-cycle of strategic planning or just one aspect, Cedar Point Consulting will assist you in strategic planning and plan execution by authoring, reviewing and assisting in the creation of strategic plans from start to finish. With our extensive consulting experience, Cedar Point Consulting strategists guide the creation of plans at the enterprise and division level for a wide variety of clientele and industries, from technology to financial services to non-profit, for both small and large businesses.

Currently, Cedar Point Consulting uses two different strategic planning approaches:

• For small businesses, Cedar Point Consulting takes a four-funnel approach to strategic planning that quickly identifies your organization's most pertinent long-term opportunities and pains, effectively laying out an execution plan that can be followed by businesses as small as one person.

• For mid-size to large businesses, Cedar Point Consulting utilizes the Balanced Scorecard system developed by Robert Kaplan and David Norton to guide the strategic planning process. By walking our clients through the nine-step process and facilitating the strategic planning sessions, our on-staff certified Balanced Scorecard Professionals enable you and your business to establish a coherent, cohesive set of long-term objectives and business initiatives that are aligned with your mission and vision.

In addition, if you have created your own strategic plan, our consultants can review your plan ensure that it adequately prepares your business to succeed in your industry and the competitive landscape, confirming that the roadmap is sufficiently detailed for management and staff to achieve the objectives.
