After 20 years of operation, the Virginia Lottery was unquestionably successful. However, as they prepared to enter their third decade of operation, they realized that they were facing new challenges from competition, changing technology, and the need to continue attracting and retaining a talented workforce. These concerns were the drivers for business transformation at the Virginia Lottery. Strategy Focused Business Solutions Inc. partnered with the Leadership Team and a cross-functional group of VA Lottery employees to develop their corporate strategic plan and an aligned balanced scorecard. Our work together included a comprehensive stakeholder needs and expectations assessment, mission, vision, and values definition, strategy map/strategic objectives creation, strategic process and project identification, development, and alignment, gap analysis and gap-closing strategic project identification and definition, balanced scorecard indicator identification, definition, and documentation, strategic plan document creation, and workshop participant coaching. The result has been a thorough and useful strategy management tool, a more engaged and focused workforce, and continued business performance success – even in the face of the recent economic challenges. |
“As a result of our work with Strategy Focused Business Solutions, we now have a department where our members are enthusiastic, accountable, engaged, and knowledgeable about our strategy and how it’s managed. We have both a clear sense of the current strategy and the indicators that will help us manage it, as well as a consensus that we can manage and change the strategy and indicators when required. This has resulted in a group motivated for current action and change with the confidence to know that they are able to influence the process.” A. Baker, M.D. Chief, Critical Care Department, St. Michael's Hospital, Toronto, ON, Canada |
