[Interviews] Concept Validation and Testing: Strategic Planning & Portfolio Management ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ

Mostrada Destacada

Hi folks ๐Ÿ™‚

Our team is currently working on a concept that can be of great help to those of you who execute strategic planning in Wrike. The aim of this potential future feature set is to align your strategic visions with your tactical initiatives and accurately monitor your execution progress in real time ๐Ÿ’ก

Here are the key points of this initiative:

  • Linked Strategy and Execution: Seamlessly compare strategic vision to tactical execution results making sure everyone is on the same page.
  • Automatic Portfolio Scenarios: Create strategic roadmap scenarios from all your initiatives automatically to effectively manage your goals & constraints.
  • Easy high level portfolio planning: Focus on the big picture for your strategic planning: from capacity & costs to the timelines & outcomes. Use it as input for the tactics.

While we canโ€™t yet share details of this project, we can say now that weโ€™re validating an idea of a new tool for strategic & scenario planning that can be linked to regular Wrike projects. With it, youโ€™ll be able to calculate targets and total costs, use timelines, manage constraints like budgets and capacity, create several scenarios, compare actual execution to the strategic plan, and more.ย 

If you are planning portfolios for over 3 months into the future and you are excited by this concept, our Product team would love to speak with you! Please schedule an interview here ๐Ÿ“Œ

Big thanks for your help! ๐Ÿค—

I tried to schedule a time but I only see 1 time available for Friday 8:00 am EDT. No other days or times are available. Did they really fill up that fast? Or are there time slots not showing up?

ย 

Thanks.

"Linked Strategy and Execution" sounds like it may be a topic that has been big on my list for years, ever since we started using Wrike. I have provided lots of feedback over the years on this missing element in Wrike. It is of great interest to me to see what is being considered and if it addresses the shortcomings I see in Wrike related to this.

Please let me know if any more slots open up.ย  Thank you.

Looks like I missed the boat on this but I'm definitely interested in the potential here. My team manages an active portfolio which is a mix of several very large-scale strategic programs/initiatives as well as many related and unrelated tactical projects. At this point, the needs for managing discrete tactical projects are relatively well met by the tool, and we are able to extract basic datapoints from those projects at the portfolio for some strategic decision making, but we're not using it as much for the large complex strategic programs/planning.ย

Hi -

Are there any updates regarding this functionality? Is there a possibility of being able to pilot this functionality?ย  I am considering customizing a space just for this purpose, but thought I would check in to see if there was the possibility that some of this functionality would be released soon, even in Labs?

I participated in an interview many months ago and we are starting to think a little bit differently about strategic planning I little bit differently than we even have just months ago.

Late to the party here as well, but I'd be happy to connect with Product if they're still digging in here! My team leads cross-functional initiatives across a multi-year road map.
