Questions, answered
How fast is the sprint?
Most sprints run two to four weeks from kickoff to delivered operating plan, depending on scheduling and how many stakeholders we interview.
Who needs to participate from our side?
Your lead decision-maker plus the two or three people closest to the work. The sprint is built to fit busy calendars.
What happens after the sprint?
Many clients run the plan themselves. Others continue with a Fractional Strategy & Engagement Partner engagement for ongoing support. There is no obligation either way.
