Quarterly Sessions

Strategy Sharpeners
Quarterly Strategic Planning

For teams already running the operating system. Come in every quarter, sharpen the plan, reset priorities, get back to work.

Every 90 Days

No strategy survives a full quarter without adjustment. The market shifts, your team learns things, opportunities show up. Strategy Sharpeners are where your leadership team stops, looks at what actually happened, and adjusts before inertia takes over.

Who It's For

Leadership teams that already have Scaling Up running and need a structured quarterly reset. Also works if you've done the Four Decisions Workshop and want ongoing discipline without full monthly coaching.

What Happens Each Session

  • Review last quarter's Rocks. What got done, what didn't, why.
  • Update the One-Page Strategic Plan based on new data
  • Set next quarter's Rocks and assign ownership
  • People check: A-player percentage, talent gaps
  • Cash position review and forecast adjustment
  • Pick one strategic bottleneck and solve it in the room

Format

Half-day or full-day, quarterly. On-site or virtual. Rob facilitates and pushes back on weak thinking. That's the point.

The Quarterly Rhythm

Q1 Annual plan + Q1 Rocks. Set the BHAG and annual targets.
Q2 First checkpoint. Adjust based on what Q1 taught you.
Q3 Mid-year. Are you on pace? If not, what's in the way?
Q4 Year-end review + next year planning. Face the gaps, then plan forward.
"A quarterly plan that doesn't get reviewed is just a list of good intentions."

Stopping every 90 days to look at the data is what separates companies that grow from companies that drift.

Already Running Scaling Up?

If your team has the framework but needs the discipline of a quarterly reset, this might be the right fit. Let's talk about where you are.
