StrategyBlocks 6 Takes Home Gold from the 2023 Globee® Awards
We are incredibly excited that our new platform, StrategyBlocks 6, was honored by the prestigious Globee® Awards for Information Technology. StrategyBlocks 6 received Gold distinction in the Strategic Corporate Performance Management Solutions category, recognized for driving innovation in the field of strategic management.
StrategyBlocks 6 (SB6) has proven to be the premier solution in strategic software, by offering a streamlined, centralized platform for enterprises to communicate, collaborate and report on strategic plans, goals and executions. Data consistently shows that organizations that use a formal process to manage strategy out-perform their peers. However, less than one-third of leaders responsible for executing strategy can list even three of their company’s strategic priorities, and only 14% of employees understand their company’s strategy.
SB6 aims to improve those statistics by streamlining strategic execution. With a host of new capabilities, the platform more effectively engages users and offers a highly visual, easily digestible, and all-in-one look at how strategic goals are being met.
SB6’s new tool, StrategyBlocks Ideas, empowers all users to readily share their thoughts for strategic improvements with the entire team. It makes it easy to review others’ Ideas and follow progress, compare different Ideas, and approve Ideas for integration into the overall strategic plan. Ideas integrates with StrategyBlocks’ well-loved block scheduling feature, allowing users to efficiently estimate project duration, allocate workload based on availability and manage the delivery schedule.
SB6 also features an overhauled interface and a redesigned homepage that offers greater clarity and ease of use. This includes a reorganization of the main menu to provide a clear path for users to follow as well as the addition of a new homepage that displays a user’s most frequently used assets. Subtle enhancements such as a soft blue interface and color palette, when taken in conjunction with the reorganized navigation menu, help to keep a user’s attention focused on the center of the screen instead of being lost in a complex interface. This makes it easy and intuitive to interact quickly with StrategyBlocks, allowing users to readily share updates on delivery progress, monitor metrics or risks and check the status of their Ideas.
SB6 has been embraced by organizations around the world, including the City of Kelowna, British Columbia, Rollins College, and the University of Canterbury.
“Strategy is no longer a once or twice-a-year activity—for most organizations it requires near-constant evaluation and engagement,” said Craig Catley, managing director at StrategyBlocks. “That’s why StrategyBlocks 6 is such an important platform for our customers because it allows every user to engage with the company’s strategy, effectively measuring results, accounting for risk, easily issuing reports and soliciting feedback. We are honored that the hard work we put into this new platform has been recognized by the Globee Awards.”
