In June 2017, I launched a pioneering seminar “5 Skills of Master Strategists” after finding commonalities in the successful approaches of CEOs when in comes to strategy formulation and execution. The 5 skills are sensemaking, innovating, influencing, executing and discovering.
I started interviewing CEOs, CMOs and award-winning young marketers in my blog since May 9, 2014, although I have featured dozens of prominent people in some of my books years before that.
These 5 interconnected capabilities provided a framework for market leadership and excellence and these are: seeing things differently, thinking differently, creating offers differently, connecting differently and doing things differently.
Enter COVID pandemic in early 2020, priorities have changed! Many of our customers and even non-customers contacted me for help. Many have been asking for my opinion. I realized that they need to understand what is going on for without strong sensemaking skills, they will miss other aspects of survival and recovery. Without meeting these prerequisites, they will delay growth for their companies.
Entrepreneurs and marketers need help, to learn, to get facts, as well as opinions, fast and cheaply. They need to save time and cost, to recover and emerge stronger. Mansmith CEO Chiqui Escareal-Go was fully supportive when we launched a new learning category known as “quick guides” — a direct-to-the-point guide to the most frequently asked questions – decoding patterns, showing examples and frameworks, giving practical advise, and simplifying concepts to layman’s terms from experts.
