succeed. They can identify opportunities for growth and
innovation and develop creative solutions to complex

Leaders who lack planning and strategic thinking
skills may struggle to make informed decisions that align
with the organization's vision and mission. They may
struggle to anticipate potential roadblocks or to identify
opportunities for growth and innovation. As a result, they
may find it difficult to inspire their team and achieve their
goals. This especially happens when leaders are vying for
position and popularity rather than results.
Leaders who possess strong planning and strategic
thinking skills can guide their team towards success, even
in the face of uncertainty or adversity. They can make
informed decisions that align with the organization's
mission and goals and develop plans that set the team up
for success. By demonstrating their ability to plan and
think strategically, leaders can inspire their team and build
a culture of success and achievement where they center the
team and the team’s contribution to their success.
