Interpretive Strategy; Sense-Making Stage 1 – Define the goal and the resources Define the “North Star” – what RESULT makes all
this effort worthwhile? Define the “ship” – what resources do we have?
What do we need? (time, funds, expertise)
Stage 2 – COMMUNICATE, support, learn Use the North Star as a constant touchstone Span time – link to past, make future clear,
highlight existing examples of alignment Span the organization – link to other priorities Eliminate or pre-empt barriers (including resource
issues as they arise)
