"I'm going to talk to you all about how to get involved in big strategic conversations to maximize your organizational impact and your global impact. I'm going to share some practical tips for how to do this. I'm going to end by telling you a story of how I applied these tips to get asked to lead a project which saved my organization a billion euros, in three months."
"I'm simply thinking about conversations where strategic topics are discussed, decisions are made, and projects are assigned. These things could be financial. They could be operational. They could be technical. They could be personnel-based conversations. They happen all the time, every day, at every single level of the business that you're in. They could be the CEO and the CXOs talking about fundraising, and the plan for the next two years, and the five-year roadmap."
Getting involved in big strategic conversations increases organizational and global impact. Big strategic conversations are interactions where strategic topics are discussed, decisions are made, and projects are assigned. These conversations can be financial, operational, technical, or personnel-based. They occur at every level of a business, from CEO and CXO planning to team decisions about who will work on a project. Participation makes it more likely that a project will be assigned to you or your team. Big conversations can be formal meetings or informal interactions such as one-on-ones, desk-side chats, Slack huddles, private channels, pull requests, or draft RFCs. One case resulted in leading a project that saved an organization a billion euros in three months.
