How to Input and Manage a Company’s Strategic Attributes with the iTransform365 Framework (Direct Approach) 

This article explains how to use the Direct Approach within the Strategy Studio to Define, View, and Update  a company's Mission, Vision, Pillars and  Values using the Strategy Studio ?

Overview

iTransform365 is AIZOPlan’s standard strategic framework. It is an OKR-based model focused on defining Mission, Vision, Pillar, Core Values, Strategic Objectives, and measurable Key Results and helps organizations translate their vision and strategy into clear, actionable objectives, driving alignment, agility, and transformation across all levels. 

With iTransform365, a strong organizational direction begins with a clearly defined Mission, an inspiring Vision, a set of Pillar and a set of strong Core Values. These elements shape your corporate identity and act as a strategic compass for all initiatives and decision-making.

This article explains how to define, view and update your company's strategic attributes ( Mission, Vision, Values, Pillars)  using the Direct Approach in the Strategy Studio.

The Direct Mode is ideal when your strategy is already defined, and you simply need to input or update your company's strategic attributes, goals, and key results without step-by-step guidance.

If you prefer a guided, step-by-step process, you can use the  iTransform365 Wizard Stepper.
