Strategic planning needs a blank canvas. When I think of strategic planning in my company, it starts with a completely blank canvas that I can have a whole lot of fun on. I can use color, patterns, mind maps…whatever I want.
And that’s exactly how it should be. You have a ton of ideas going on in that huge, brilliant mind of yours, and you need a place to get messy. Scribble things down. Cross things out. Doodle if you need to.
Asana isn’t good for that. Neither are any of those common kinds of project management apps.
Now, don’t get me wrong. I am a techie geek gal. I loves me a bit of Asana. It’s one of my happy places. And it is AMAZING at what it does. But it is not for strategic planning.

Warmly,
