DesignStrategy Canvas

One page. Four sections. One strategy the exec team signs.

Your assessment gives our AI engine everything it needs to draft an ambition, three 'where to play' domains, three top moves, and a 90-day commitments list. The exec team edits and ratifies. No more 40-slide strategy decks nobody reads.

How it works

Run the AI Readiness Assessment. The engine pulls your overall score, the five dimension scores, your archetype, and your company profile to ground the canvas in reality — not the generic McKinsey deck.

the AI drafts a four-section canvas: Ambition (one sentence the whole company can repeat), Where to Play (three priority-ranked domains), Top 3 Moves (each with owner role and a success KPI), 90-Day Commitments (concrete, owner-named, start-by-date).

The exec team edits in-app. Reorder the where-to-play domains, rewrite the ambition, replace moves you disagree with. Every edit is versioned — the canvas keeps a full history.

Two owner or admin signatures promote the draft to ratified. The ratified canvas becomes the anchor for your roadmap, OKRs, and Executive Board Pack. Regenerate the canvas when your scores move materially — weeks, not quarters.

Strategy decks don't ship themselves

Without a ratified canvas

  • Strategy docs nobody reads past page two
  • AI plans that don't reference your actual scores
  • Exec team agreeing on the words but not the moves
  • Board asks 'what is our AI strategy?' and nobody answers in one breath

With the Strategy Canvas

  • One page every exec can recite from memory
  • Drafted from your real readiness scores + archetype
  • Top moves each have a named owner and a measurable KPI
  • Ratified by signature — this is the plan the team signed

What's inside the canvas

AI-drafted first cut

Grounded in your assessment scores, archetype, and industry. Not a blank template — a real starting point you edit.

Playing-to-Win structure

Four sections (Ambition, Where-to-Play, Top Moves, Commitments) based on Roger Martin's framework. Enforces hard choices.

In-app editing

Rewrite any section directly. Every edit is versioned so you can see how the strategy evolved over time.

Ratification flow

Two owner or admin signatures promote a draft to ratified. The ratified version is locked — regenerate for updates.

Auto-refresh from scores

the AI flags sections that no longer match your numbers when scores move materially. You approve the refresh.

Anchor for the OS

The Strategic Roadmap, OKR Cascade, and Executive Board Pack all read from this canvas. Change it here, everything cascades.

1

Complete the assessment

Takes ~10 minutes. Scores across five dimensions with industry benchmarks.

2

the AI drafts the canvas

the AI produces all four sections from your scores, archetype, and company context. Typically 8–12 seconds.

3

Edit with the exec team

Rewrite the ambition in your voice. Reorder domains. Replace moves. Add commitments that belong to named owners.

4

Ratify and share

Two owner or admin signatures lock the version. Export to PDF for the board, or keep it live and regenerate next quarter.

We had a 'strategy document' in SharePoint that no-one read. The canvas gave the exec team one page we all agreed on — and the roadmap + board pack now flow straight from it.
