Yet PowerMaps do more than just stopping self-harm — they also enable you to:
- Improve cross-silo communication, with the introduction of a common language
- Challenge assumptions about the current state, (especially those holding you back)
- Anticipate how things are evolving, so the organisation can get ahead of the curve
- Develop organisational capabilities to exploit identified opportunities better than rivals
- Create strategies people can align around so you can out-play competitors.
The most important take aways from PowerMaps are a) there is no 'one size fits all' method or culture you can adopt to be successful, b) strategy and execution are the same thing. It's simply not enough just to deliver what similar organisations do in other countries — you need to know why you're doing this here (and not something else) and how to make it work in your context.
PowerMaps can guide you on this journey.
