Vision and Strategy session logistics
Understanding the vision and defining your program strategy and design can occur in a single session, or in multiple sessions. Consider these high-level guidelines as if the program strategy and design were a single session:
How long is the session?
A one-time V&S session is typically 60-90 minutes. 90 minutes is recommended, as there is a lot to discuss. You should leave this meeting with enough information to provide strategic recommendations around program strategy and design.
Who should be included?
- Core project team
- Executive sponsors and key decision-makers
- Extended team members essential to the success of the program (like a communications lead).
When to schedule the session?
For organizations new to Viva Glint: The V&S session should follow the project kickoff (no later than two weeks after) early enough to ensure sufficient time for program design work and other activities that lead up to the planned launch date.
For Existing / Repeat Viva Glint Customers: Organize a V&S session one-two months ahead of the planned launch to review the existing program strategy and design. This provides time to reflect on the Viva Glint journey, incorporate lessons learned, and identify potential changes to the existing program.
Note
It’s likely that this facilitated review is done annually – before the start of the primary survey cycle.
