The Tools of the i2a: Insights to Action Strategic Thinking System

Three i2a Application Stories

Engage Your Network

The discipline of defining strategy and putting it into practice can be challenging for teams and organizations. We provide strategic consulting to help organizations clarify their future, identify their best and most creative strategic opportunities and set a course forward with very specific action steps. Most importantly, we teach you how to put that thinking in a power-graphic format so that it is simple, memorable and interesting to the rest of your organization.

The i2a: Insights to Action Thinking System is the result of a strategic collaboration between Gretchen Pisano (Owner, Sounding Board Ink) and Tom Hood (CEO, Maryland Association of CPAs). The five-phase process of Sight, Insight, Create, Communicate and Inspire is designed to go beyond the traditional strategic planning process to:
• focus on the rigor of the process and the caliber of the conversation.
• draw on verbal and visual techniques to engage and inspire.
• use large format templates to guide the process and create the forum for people to
“share the air.”
• develop engaging communication tools by virtue of the process.
• teach skills beyond the subject matter.

“If you don't know where you are going any road will get you there.”
