Seminar Description

This session introduces a practical, one-page strategic planning tool modeled after the Business Model Canvas. Participants will learn how to quickly clarify their value proposition, target markets, key activities, and success metrics — all on a single sheet.

Attendees will leave with a draft version of their own strategic plan and the confidence to refine it with their teams.

  • Learn how to map key business elements using a simplified canvas model
