Which initiatives support
your strategy?

Start with the strategy you have or build one from priorities. See which objectives have no supporting work, and which initiatives have no strategic link. Compare dates, costs and dependencies in plan alternatives before deciding whether to use one.

01 / HOW IT WORKS

Strategy execution.
More than one way to see it.

The same plan can be read as cards, a network, a timeline or a heat map. Each view answers a different question across the three steps.

01

SHAPE STRATEGY

What are we trying to change?

Start with an agreed strategy or build one from priorities. Set objectives, key results and measures, then see how they connect.

CONNECT THE WORK

Which initiatives support it?

Bring initiatives onto the Connections studio canvas. Connect them to objectives and to work they depend on.

EXPLORE THE PLAN

Where should we look closer?

See where change is concentrated and compare business capability maturity with your target. Open the underlying initiatives before you decide what to do.

02 / SEE THE TRADE-OFFS

What if you did
this instead?

Move an initiative's dates or revise its estimated cost in saved plan alternatives. Compare each with the current plan and see any dependency timing conflicts. Nothing changes until the Capability or Domain owner applies an alternative.

01

See the trade-off. Compare planned dates and cost estimates side by side.

02

Find date clashes. See which dependent work is affected when an initiative moves.

03

Choose deliberately. Keep the current plan while the Capability or Domain owner reviews the alternative.

What changed?
Starting in April conflicts with Data service finishing in May. The alternative adds £30k to the estimate. The Capability or Domain owner decides whether to use it.

ABOUT

Working now.
Still being built.

waytrk is in development. Its current test build supports capability-based planning: shape a strategy from priorities through objectives, key results and KPIs; add initiatives to Capability plans by hand or from an Excel workbook; see missing strategic links; assess Capability maturity; explore dependencies and change impact; and compare plan alternatives.

A transformation office, PMO or any team with a strategy can use these views to ask which work supports a goal and where the plan needs a closer look.

Guided onboarding and hosted customer access are still being built.
