“Over 70,000 executives have implemented Scaling Up and The Rockefeller Habits since 2002. For years, we have shared anecdotes about companies who have used the Scaling Up methodology to grow their business. Now, with the release of data incorporating over 1,900 companies using Align and Scaling Up Scoreboard powered by Align, you can see the quantitative proof of how successful companies Scale Up and what characteristics they share.”
Verne Harnish, CEO, Scaling UpCompanies get the most out of strategic planning when they:
Communicate Better
Communicating more frequently and efficiently is directly correlated with increased employee engagement scores and gains in productivity.
Make it a continuous process
Strategic plan management does not start and stop with the end of each planning session. It's continuous and incorporated into your daily work.
Share plans with everyone
The strategic vision and goals should be shared with the full team. Everyone should see how their daily work contributes to overarching company goals.
Focus on metrics that matter most
Trying to take on too much can be equivalent to taking on nothing. Align the full team around 2-3 priorities that will move the business forward each quarter.

“We implemented a system to force focus around priorities we set in our planning meetings. It helped us keep both customers and employee happiness top of mind. The results were substantial. Over a five year period we increased revenue 400% and grew from 50 to 130 employees.”
