PRACTICE
Planning & Mobilization
Connect your ambitions to reality with lightweight, high-confidence planning.
You hate planning. While no leader wants their startup’s teams flailing randomly against their goals, there’s a natural aversion to sinking outsized time in “planning”. Alpine Partners works with growing businesses to implement lean, effective, quarterly and annual planning cycles, that help ensure cross-functional coordination, efficiently allocate capital, and then let your people get back to work.
WORKSTREAMS
Goal Setting
No one wants to fail before they’ve set foot on the field. The best companies build-up “aggressive but achievable”, data-driven goals, and then effectively cascade them down to their operating teams to execute.
High-confidence planning
“Working hard” is not a plan. Great teams take aggressive goals and then use planning to articulate exactly the problems they’ll tackle, the initiatives they’ll execute, and the capital they’ll need, to win.
Goal Setting
How realistic targets push your business forward.
Finance partnership. In great companies, ‘finance drives the bus’, translating their deep understanding of your business and its P&L into aggressive yet realistic goals for the rest of your company. Alpine works with client’s finance teams to put the processes in place to set the right goals to push your team to new peaks.
High-confidence planning
The right teammates, in the right positions.
Documentation and structure. How you practice is how you play, and in planning, a clear, crisp document is critical in articulating a plan to win. Alpine leverages the best planning documents from top technology companies to help your teams lock in the initiatives, inputs, and resources they need to hit their goals.
Facilitation. Planning is a muscle, and, in many organizations, a new one. Alpine works to facilitate getting the right stakeholders to the table, in the right roles, to start building a culture of high-quality planning.
