KEY TAKEAWAYS 
Some of the strategies that have worked in the past no longer have the same traction in the market place leading to frustration for business owners. 
This can be confusing and often the response is to carry on doing more of the same, but this is not always effective. 
The compass program provides a route map, ‘a guiding compass’ that will help your company back into growth. 
At the heart of the program is the importance of purpose and mindset. Have you got the right; 

Strategy 
Mindset 
People 
Resources 
Capability and capacity 

‘The Strategy Compass Lite’ will take you through stages. 
The challenge is that employees are not engaged, and customers are less receptive to advertising. 
We need to switch people on;  to find a way to the market place that switches them on and creates a pull and attraction that compels them to take action. 
We need to stop thinking about selling and start thinking about serving. What difference does our product or service make in the marketplace? what difference does it make to our customers? 
We must come up with a compelling ‘why’. 
Your business needs to stand for something, a bigger purpose that will engage both customers and employees. 
The Strategy Compass model provides a series of in-depth questions that will determine your companies bigger ‘why’ and how you can use that to develop engagement and performance with your employees and create a community of loyal clients. 
By pursuing the purpose and getting it right companies are successful and the profits follow. 
If we want to accelerate growth in our business we must change the way we think. 
There are constant challenges as a business leader and at times this leads to frustration but if we are going to create a shift in the business we must make a shift in our thinking. 
As the business owner, you can be both the greatest asset to the business and the greatest liability. Is your current way of thinking, helping you? 
A new mindset can deliver growth and success leading to new results. 
It's important to focus on what we want. There will be challenges and it’s the way in which we respond that makes the difference. 
As humans we are great makers of meaning; we interpret, deciding whether it’s good or bad news, it’s that determination internally that impacts on the way we feel and the actions we then take.
