CMDi were engaged to develop a business strategy for the Group and each of the 3 independent business units, based on market drivers, brand performance targets and a review of the sectors they compete within.

CMDi created a three stage programme to develop a strategy to strengthen the role of the Group and build a 5 year vision with supporting roadmap for the Group and x3 business units based on research and a vision building workshop programme.

CMDi’s approach involved our proven vision building methodology and a series of internal workshops to ensure each leadership team were involved and took ownership of the strategy outputs.

The final outputs were an elegant suite of integrated vision, mission and value statements, brand territory maps and 1 page business strategy roadmaps – all supporting a united strategy to achieve step change growth.

An independent review of the Group growth strategy and an integrated solution to creating the vision and 3 year plans for the multiple businesses and brands.
