Ep 129 (Shorty) - How to Become a More Strategic Thinker
Here’s how you can sharpen up your strategic thinking to elevate your positioning in your organisation
Today, in this latest 'shorty' episode, we’re talking about the 3 steps you can take, right now, to become a more strategic thinker.
It's no value to you being pigeonholed as an operational player in your org if you are ready to stretch beyond it.
Thinking more strategically is the start and then sharing that thinking, with real conviction and confidence, will help you build instant credibility as a leader.
In this episode, we discuss:
· 02:05 Must Do #1 Think about the objectives of your organisation and talk to those objectives all the time
· 02:45 Must Do #2 Think critically about our current processes and do we have the resources to do it
· 03:15 Must Do #3 How to be more strategic in the moment... here's my secret sauce! Say you're in a meeting and want to bring everyone back to the big picture... help people get out of the operational detail by posing the meeting with the question, "Why?".
In longer form: "Why are we meeting here right now?"; "What is the purpose of this team? Or organisation?!" "What is the purpose of this project?"
Building your brand and credibility rely a lot on sharing your strategic thinking... how could you be more strategic today?

Hi, I’m Rebecca Allen and I’m an Executive Coach and Personal Brand expert for corporate women, aspiring to senior levels of leadership. I absolutely LOVE coaching and seeing my fabulous clients exceed their own expectations. I’ve worked for 11 years now as a coach and have helped women at companies including Woolworths, ANZ, J.P. Morgan, PwC, Coca-Cola Amatil, Ministry of Defence and Coles. I live for those phone calls from clients, jumping up and down, telling me they’ve got that promotion, negotiated a seismic pay rise or have moved into a role completely aligned with their mission, values and strengths. I’m a working mum of two wonderful children, adore travel and trying my hand at anything creative. I’d love to connect with you!
