Questions Are Power!

Question-Based Planning. Read all about it!

The pace of change is now so frantic that planning itself must evolve from supporting mult-year projections to supporting quick decisions in any direction. A key benefit of Question-Based Planning is that it gets people thinking as a unit, able to adapt quickly to change. Derrick Van Mell's short book exposes the problems with "strategic" planning as it's done today and provides a plain-English solution. Email susan@vanmell.com to order a copy of Question-Based Planning: Planning without Mission, Vision, Strategy, Tactics or Objectives. ($20 including shipping).

Planning without mission, vision, strategy, tactics or objectives

Good questions clarify purpose and direction so managers can move forward together toward a common goal. Our plain English approach to business planning lets managers define and track the year's top tasks.

Question-based planning - headed in the right direction

For over 15 years, Van Mell Associates has helped CEOs make big decisions successfully. Our unique approach responds to what every CEO says, "We don't want the planner to lecture us; we want them to ask us good questions". We ask questions from the perspective of all departments including: Marketing, Sales, Operations, IT, HR and Finance.
