Reigniting Canadian Business

With the unprecedented challenges facing business owners and organizations today, Incite is well positioned to help clients build resilience, re-calibrate, and start preparing for ‘business as unusual.’

Back-to-Business

The COVID-19 pandemic has created considerable economic and financial uncertainty, but leaders cannot be paralyzed. While efforts are understandably focused on addressing short-term realities, it is important to start mapping out how your organization will emerge from and thrive in a post-COVID-19 world. What steps can be taken now to identify opportunities, consider different business scenarios, and get your organization ready for future success?

Back-to-Business Strategy and Recovery Roadmap

The crisis will eventually end but the journey to recovery starts now. Incite partners with clients to craft a tailored Back-to-Business strategy and recovery roadmap by understanding the changes that have impacted the current marketplace, defining the priorities that will help better position a business for optimal recovery, and providing a tactical action plan that can be used by teams to get back to business.

Our clients partner with Incite to access our strategic expertise, business networks, understanding of this new business environment, and relationship-driven philosophy for recovery and growth. Together we work through a 5-step process to help clients re-evaluate this new environment and strategically pivot their organization to move forward with confidence.

Step 1:
Understand your new reality

Step 2:
Evaluate the new landscape

Step 3:
Identify the pivot

Step 4:
Establish the recovery plan

Step 5:
Keep the ball rolling

Short-Term Business Planning

Are you ready to respond quickly and effectively as the country begins to open for business again? While most have some version of business plan to guide the organization annually, the likelihood that these plans will apply for the rest of 2020 is small. This is where short-term business planning becomes critical.

The uncertainty of this economic climate is proof enough that you need to design a flexible and nimble strategic plan to get through the coming months. You need processes that can help inform the new day-to-day priorities and drive clear and focused engagement across your team through a shared understanding of your updated direction and goals.

Virtual Facilitation and Advisory

Having the ability to effectively collaborate in a virtual environment has now become essential. But, the reality is that not everyone has the skills to facilitate an effective virtual session. Leadership discussions, board meetings, and strategic planning sessions remain essential for decision-making and to keep organizations working proactively through recovery.

Incite will partner with you to help transition from face-to-face meetings to virtual boardrooms and designs online and blended solutions so your organization can meet the needs of working remotely. We use a focused process, accompanied by proven engagement strategies, to optimize group dynamics and help you maximize your results. We have the expertise to:

Facilitate leadership, board, or staff meetings
Lead strategic planning sessions
Facilitate brainstorming discussions
Resolve issues or bring a group to a consensus
Facilitate team building activities
Conduct virtual town hall meetings

Compass Collective

Incite, alongside other like-minded business leaders, has formed a collective of professional service providers – the Compass Collective – to offer complimentary advice, workshops, and other resources designed to support leaders as they move toward the new business landscape in Alberta. We believe that the more organizations we can support through COVID-19, the faster our shared economic recovery will be.
