Nick kicks off the new year by focusing on the importance of strategic planning for business growth, examining the common pitfalls of overly complex strategies that hinder execution and introduces a practical one-page strategic plan framework used in private equity. 

Nick outlines the six key components of this framework, including the exit vision, value creation thesis, strategic priorities, key metrics, critical constraints, and quarterly rocks

KEY TAKEAWAYS

BEST MOMENTS

"Most business owners start off with overly complex strategies that cause them to fail when it comes to execution." 

"If your strategy doesn't fit on one page, you don't have a strategy, you have a wish-list." 

"The planning process itself becomes the goal, not the outcome. And that is a huge, huge mistake." 

"If you can't fit your strategy on one page, you don't have strategic clarity yet."
