Strategy Sprint
Make sense of complexity and chaos. Design a future-proof direction your whole team believes in.
The 6-week Strategy Sprint helps senior leaders and founders navigate major change and transformation.
When teams face AI uncertainty, shifting market pressures, or lost momentum, we get to the root of the problem.
Through interactive workshops and futures thinking, we co-create a clear, sustainable strategy alongside the people who will execute it.
That’s how we ensure long-term alignment and buy-in.
-
Weeks 1-2: Discovery & Diagnosis
Stakeholder interviews across the organisation. Sense-making of the real situation. A leadership session to align on what's actually happening underneath the presenting problem.
Weeks 3-4: Team Workshop
A facilitated half or full day session. Your team explores possible directions together — no passive presentations, real investment in the outcome.
Weeks 5-6: Strategic Direction
A written strategic direction document and prioritised action plan. Final presentation and handover. Ready to share and act on immediately.
Day 30: Follow-up Check-in
A 45-minute call to review how the direction has landed, what's moving, and where you might need additional support.

Senior leaders and founders at a genuine moment of change
New market pressures, a looming restructure without a roll-out plan, a strategy nobody believes in anymore
Teams where everything is changing and everyone has a different understanding of the vision
Leaders who need to plan their annual strategy and don’t know where to start
Founders whose organisation isn't keeping up with their vision

What Sets Us Apart
Our Strategy Sprint combines cultural foresight, stakeholder diagnosis, narrative-led systems thinking, and facilitated team work. The sprint ends with a simple, repeatable direction that your team owns and can work on, not a framework that needs months of interpretation.
Foresight First
We bring futures thinking into every engagement so the direction you land on holds up as the world changes, not just developed for the conditions you're in today.
Systems Thinking
Before we recommend a direction, we map the system to understand root causes, interdependencies, and leverage points. Our work solves for the system, not just the surface level problems seen today.
Cultural Fluency
Twenty years across fashion, ecommerce, editorial, and creative brands. We understand the dynamics of the sectors we work in, which means the strategy is grounded in the real world.
Practically Actionable
We start with abstract high-level thinking, to land on clear, specific outputs your team can act on immediately, and a direction they helped build, so they'll want to deliver it.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Many strategy consultants diagnose from the outside and hand you a top-down direction without workshopping through the systems and deeper mindsets surrounding the change. Chosen Futures builds the direction with the people who will deliver it — which means it actually gets acted on. The facilitated team workshop is what makes the difference. People don't resist strategies they helped create.
-
It depends on the size and complexity of your organisation. Typically four to eight interviews across different levels and functions.
We agree the scope in the initial conversation.
-
Yes — the sprint scales to the size of the organisation. For a founder-led business the stakeholder interviews might be two or three conversations and the team workshop a half day. The method is the same. The scope adjusts.
-
A written strategic direction document, a prioritised action plan, and a team that helped build it.
That means you get something concrete enough to act on immediately and not a vision statement with a mood board.
-
Some clients come back for further engagements as new challenges emerge. There's no pressure, but the door is always open.
