The effects of the pandemic are still active but less from fear and more from exhaustion. How do we lead when it feels like the world just wants to take a nap?

This second wave will require a new kind of leadership, the days of “steady hand” guidance will not be enough to pull teams into action.

The steps need to be clear for the teams to get out of the mental fog with endurance, perseverance, and maybe even defiance against the mundane that was created from the pandemic. 

One approach to this would be to build a One Page Strategic Plan to help reignite everyone and get them back in focus.

This One-Page Strategic Plan helps in core areas of your business and aligns the teams to create the impact you need to keep business growing beyond the pandemic fatigue.

Identifying your biggest challenges over the next year will tap into the mental stamina of you and your team.

Using the KTY One Page Strategic Plan can be a game-changer in aligning strategies that complete the goals, speed up the process in helping key individuals to take ownership, leading to engaged actions and easy systems that make tracking success easy.


Here are some of the assets that will come from the One Page Strategic Plan that can support you in bringing the team back into focus:

  • Complete SWT analysis (yes, ours is SWT!)
  • Define the foundation of your company that will guide your employees
  • Define key thrusts or priorities: 3 to 5 years and determine 1-year goal
  • Define critical numbers to in which to manage your company by weekly
  • Define quarterly numbers
  • Develop a quarterly reward
  • Define quarterly accountabilities
  • Ensure everyone works on top priorities

KYT will keep everyone on track of their accountabilities. This is just a list of a few values that come from doing a strategic plan that can help change the direction into targeted collaborative goals. 

Think of all the ways your organization would grow if they had a map in their hands to carve a clear path to success and see the vision beyond the current fog?
