“A clever man gives the right answers” … “A wise man asks the right questions”
One of the big conundrums facing business leaders is what they don’t know, they don’t know. Damian D’Cruz has gone a long way to helping business people ask the right questions with his business planning tool kit called BisVision.
This great kit uses 5 decks of cards to ask probing questions around SWOT’s, Vision, Planning, and Execution. You can use the kit to take you through a structured planning approach.
I have used the kit for a number of years and have found it great in its simplest use of – “what have I not considered in developing my business plan?”
Damian has produced two versions of the kit one for Businesses and one for the Not-For-Profit sector.
Asking the Right Questions
The opening quote, regarding asking the right questions, is so true. I have now come to the belief that any professional service provider can best be measured by the quality of those questions. As a consultant myself, I have realised it is not the tools we use, but the way in which we use the tools that produces the best result.
“I can give you the paint brush, but it will not make you an artist”. It’s on this basis I believe that by passing on as many tools and techniques I can, I will help people, but if they want true art give me a call 🙂 Happy reading.
For those who like DiY planning, this kit will be invaluable. Support this local company and purchase it on the Bisvision Website
