Strategic Initiatives uses thought leadership to generate the insights that position our clients for success.  Our thought leadership has been manifested in publications, presentations and speaking appearances, satellite/Web broadcasts, and other venues.

Over the past ten years, Donald M. Norris and other Strategic Initiatives associates have literally “written the books” on organizational transformation to meet the emerging context of the Knowledge Age.  The Strategic Initiatives Team has combined thought leadership and artful practice to shape the leading edge of thinking on leading and navigating change, crafting and executing strategy, focusing on value, and performance measurement.  Our Team has also defined best practice in e-learning, knowledge-sharing and developing e-knowledge repositories, and designing technology-rich facilities for Knowledge Age applications.

The following descriptions highlight our thought leadership in several key areas.
