To complete the 4R Assessment at the end of this page, let me give you some basic info.
First, it’s a proprietary framework we developed to help business owners, CEOs & Senior Leaders power up, level up their strategic planning execution.
It’s based on what I call the Four R Quadrants of a Leadership Ecosystem.
These four quadrants need to function cohesively and supportively to achieve optimal organizational Results. The Four R Assessment is essentially a resource inventory. Each of the four quadrants represents a “strategic planning leadership asset” that must be strategically allocated in order to achieve optimal results, strategic objectives & KPIs.
4 R Assessment allows you to do a qualitative and a preliminary Quantitative assessment of the tools & resources you have at your disposal. To get more quantitative assessment you will need to do some more Quantitative assessments which we cover in our 5-week training program, which you can sign up for below.
In our training on Organizational / Leadership Ecosystem we go into detail on how to create an Organizational Ecosystem Map but for the strategic planning process in this Position Gap Analysis phase we do a limited Ecosystem Map to help the organization identify key Resources, Resources, Roles & Rules they will need to strategically allocate in the strategic planning process.
This should be done by the initial strategic planning team but should also be expanded on by the Strategic Planning Subgroups.
This exercise is “value or vision specific” – we will explain this concept in our 5-week training program entitled: Leading with a Strategic Planning Framework for Business Owners & CEOs who want to enhance their Strategic Thinking, Planning & Leadership
A quick understanding of this value/ vision alignment for the 4 Rs is illustrated with the line of questions
