To define a strategy you need a mission and a vision for your organization or product.

Defining your strategy is the first step in the process to implement your strategy to achieve your goals. You need to isolate extrinsic and intrinsic factors that influence the ability to reach your objectives.

  1. Run a SWOT analysis
  2. Check your strategic options
  3. Make your decisions
  4. Implement your strategy

To work on your strategic options (step 2 and 3) you could use the Decision doctype from the Doctypes for Project Management add-on to define what you are about to decide. Then use the Alternative doctype to attach the multiple options you have. Once you have analyzed your options and made a decision, the Decision document will record this.
