Are you struggling to maintain strategic focus in today's unpredictable environment?
In this lo-fi, candid episode, Sara shares her insights on navigating strategic planning during persistent uncertainty. Whether you're impacted by shifting tariffs, changes in public funding, or volatile market conditions, this episode offers practical frameworks to maintain strategic momentum when forecasting feels (or is) impossible.
Episode Highlights:- The Twin Traps: Why both over-planning and strategic abandonment are dangerous reactions to chaos
- OKRs as an Antidote: How focusing on outcomes rather than activities creates strategic flexibility
- Three-Step Framework: A practical approach to maintaining strategic momentum during turbulent times
- Building in Public: The strategic advantage of quick launches during rapid change

- What should replace detailed action planning when circumstances shift frequently?
- How can leaders maintain team focus during periods of high uncertainty?
Notable Quotes:"If you find yourself feeling like you need to revise your plan every time you turn on the news, you may be spending time planning that could better be spent on implementation." [00:03:59]"OKRs let us focus on the goal and remain flexible about our plans, so they can be a bit of an antidote to over-planning." [00:04:27]"The rapid iteration that's possible with building in public actually can create a strategic advantage during rapid change because you can be more relevant and responsive to exactly what's happening around you."
