The Long Game ProjectStrategy Sprints
Two weeks on one consequential question.
A fixed-scope engagement for leadership teams that need a defensible answer - not a six-month consulting retainer and not another internal working group that stalls after the second meeting.
What to expect
The right question, narrowed
Week zero is spent making sure we are answering the right question. Most sprints pivot at this stage, and that is the value. You leave the intake with a sharper articulation of the decision whether we go forward together or not.
Built around the decision
Every artefact serves the call you have to make: the research you need to trust the answer, the options laid out with their trade-offs named, and the reasoning you can use to defend whichever path you choose - in a board, on a press call, in front of your team.
Fixed scope, fixed price
You know the deliverables, the cost, and the date before we start. No scope creep, no proposals that drift, no invoices that surprise. The brief is one page; the output is a decision memo your team can act on from the day it lands.
Principal-led throughout
Every sprint is delivered by the principal. No junior researchers running your strategy, no handoffs between scoping and output. The person who sharpened the question writes the answer.
Sprint vs Workshop
Which one fits the question?
Choose a Sprint
You need a fast, defensible answer to one consequential question. A sprint runs a fixed two weeks for a fixed A$9,000 and lands as a decision memo your team can act on. Best when the decision is already framed and what you need is the answer.
Choose a Workshop
You need to stress-test a whole strategy, not settle a single question. A workshop is a bespoke leadership tabletop from A$12,000 that puts your team inside the decisions the plan does not rehearse. Best when the plan looks right and you want to see where it breaks.
Not sure which shape fits? Describe the decision and we will tell you honestly, before you commit to either.
For example
Questions that fit a sprint.
- Do we raise prices in the new year, or hold and defend share?
- Which of these two acquisition targets can we actually defend to the board?
- Does our channel strategy survive our biggest competitor going direct?
If you need a whole strategy stress-tested, you want a Workshop.
