C360's Compass View of Strategy (3)


Not all processes are alike.

Compass AE is a strategic process that gives the implementers a “high level, top to bottom” overview of the priorities, approaches and circumstances for any Tangible Vision-driven projects.

Does your company have a process like that?

C360's Compass View of Strategy (2)

To succeed in one’s venture, one’s intelligence gathering process must be correct.

If the gathered intelligence and the implementation of the strategic assessment process are correct, then the strategic assessment of the intelligence is valid.

If the strategic assessment is valid, the project team's plan of action (based on the strategic assessment) will be correct.

The C360 View:
When the Compass team properly gathers
intelligence, they assess themselves, the competition and their grand settings. Then, they collaboratively build the Tangible Vision.

By using the Tangible Vision, the team properly defines the grand goal, the tactical objectives, and the connections between the objectives and the goal. Then they delineate the tactical requirements of each objective.


When the Compass team leads with their Tangible Vision, they perform the following:
  • minimize the costs;
  • mitigate the risks;
  • accelerate the delivery;
  • maximize the opportunities;
  • ensure the quality
At the end, success is the absolute.

Does your process enable your team to do the above?

Another Endorsement of Our Strategic Assessment Process




“Michael Hom has discovered a unique method for transforming the ancient teachings of Chinese strategist Sun Tzu into a comprehensive methodology for modern business strategy. His approach integrates grand strategy, technology, and market dynamics to produce a unique multi-level strategic analysis, including competitive threat assessment and a positive action plan.”
- Dr. Phil Fellman, Professor of International Business, University of Southern New Hampshire


His comment on
our previous presentation
“The Chinese students said that on the Mainland, they don't study Sun Tzu, so they found it very interesting and also very new. They were deeply impressed by your level of knowledge and I was very grateful to have you as a guest lecturer.” -Dr. Phil Fellman
