This app is designed to walk a person through their own strategic plan and development process. There is learning content in text and video form. This starts with a clear vision of where you want to go and then systematically helps you choose goals and action plans to and to achieve them. We ask for the purpose in creating the vision and a big hairy audacious goal (BHAG) to motive us to achieve our purpose. We learn how to use values for ourselves and our organization. Learning how to manage and lead people is a big component of this app. We have to learn how to motivate others through great communication skills and by example. We have also built in a community section where members can share ideas, wins, challenges and partner together on their journey. In addition, we have other resources that can help in certain situations which are available through the app. Additionally, we will have weekly blogs to augment the content of the app.
