Elevate Your Event

In this episode, our guest Graeme Watt introduces the Strategic Inevitability Framework—a powerful tool designed to help nonprofits bring clarity, focus, and follow-through to their strategic plans. Graeme shares why it’s crucial to set clear goals, build accountability, and focus on fewer, high-impact actions to drive meaningful progress.

He also dives into the importance of celebrating wins, co-creating plans with your team, and visualizing success with exercises like the “Champagne Moment.” From adapting during execution to breaking free from outdated practices, Graeme offers practical insights and tools to help organizations not just plan, but thrive.
