If 2024 was the year of “cost of living” pressures, what will 2025 bring?

From all the commentary, it’s fair to say it is likely to be volatile. With numerous geopolitical conflicts and the commencement of a new Trump administration, supply chains and business models will no doubt be further disrupted and require refinement. Agile, customer focused businesses with a clear purpose and value differentiation will be the winners in 2025.

As business managers, to get ahead of the competitors, now is a great opportunity to revisit your vision and supporting strategic objectives. JNW has found, stress testing the key elements of your strategic plan – What/Who/How – brings clarity around customer focus, cost management and your best delivery model.

What – what are the unique product/services you offer that add the most value?
Who – who are the identified users of your products/services?
How – how do you deliver your products/services effectively to the target market?

Using JNW’s business as an example, below demonstrates how this methodology can help you simplify and clarify your business focus, to create a clear and simple vision statement, together with purpose driven strategic objectives.
