Command Center Resources
During the New Year, Actual Action session, we worked through the Command Center — a single, integrated system for connecting your theme, objectives, key results, strategies, and next actions.
These resources make up the Command Center and are designed to work together as one clear, flexible planning system you can return to throughout the year.
