Here’s the tried and true approach that worked best for me: 1. Where do you want the company to be a year from now? Think about this across each of the key company dimensions: Product, org, quality, brand, key deals and customer wins, etc. Write this down.

2. What needs to get done in order to make your vision a reality? - What features and capabilities do you need to ship? - What key deals do you need to win? - Who do you need to hire? - What processes do you need to create or optimize in order to increase company velocity, efficiency and quality?

3. Share your thinking with the smartest folks on your team. Don’t worry about their level or role in the company, optimize for intellect and creative problem solving. Ask your team to deconstruct your plan and make it better. I promise you’ll be inspired and amazed by the resulting insights and unlocks.

4. Assemble the team and encourage vigorous debate. Discuss, debate and analyze the various points of view until you’ve forged your original thinking into an actionable plan with prioritized projects.
