What are Venture Guidebook's Leadership Plays and Assets?
​
Leadership Plays are guided execution packages, strategic plans or initiatives to boost your business model and achieve business goals.
Assets are topic-specific instruments and outputs from our tools that leaders and teams can immediately use to improve the business model.
Leadership Plays usually contain multiple Assets. For example, your Grow Play could include Assets such as a comprehensive strategic market assessment, positioning, value proposition and risk assessment. Therefore, Leadership Plays empower wide-ranging decisions, executing business change and achieving growth, while Assets provide insights, alignment and executing smaller measures with tangible impact.
What is the Venture Guidebook ToolBox?
​
A set of predeveloped tools delivering Assets that help with various business model challenges and opportunities. Tools bring together your business insights and context with our frameworks, leveraging artificial intelligence to research, assess data, and structure resolutions strictly within the concepts, rules and boundaries of our frameworks.
What are Venture Guidebook Frameworks?
​
We don't believe in one-size-fits-all templates or static strategy decks. Our frameworks are a structured set of principles, methods, rules, and tasks to solve complex problems and achieve specific outcomes. They contain all of our community's knowledge and expertise. Consider frameworks as a comprehensive collection of multiple consulting and complex problem-solving processes. Our primary focus lies on developing or sustaining your leading business model with the most advanced and innovative strategicOS.
Which Leadership Plays and Assets are right for me and my current situation?
We recommend a Quickstart Session to understand your immediate and long-term needs. This ensures we identify the Venture Guidebook Leadership Plays and Assets with the highest priority. We also recommend defining KPIs to measure progress. By tailoring the tools from our ToolBox, we ensure a fast impact on your results.
Can I customise and tailor Leadership Plays and Assets?
​
We work directly with leadership teams to execute custom Plays tailored to their goals and business model. With our extensive ToolBox and our existing tools, we can develop several custom Plays out of the box. Based on your objectives, we can quickly release tools that create the Assets required for your specific Play. Every Play is built in real-time through our strategicOS.
How do I share my knowledge with VG and know how to apply Leadership Plays and Assets?
Working with Venture Guidebook doesn't require any technical knowledge beyond standard user skills.
Our facilitation will guide you through the process, and your required input in the collaboration hub comes with instructions and examples. Because our methodology enforces a common language, different leaders and teams can easily collaborate. Upon request, we can also go through your input in a workshop setting. Collaboration works in a hybrid setting (online and offline).
​
No bullshit, buzzwords or jargon. Just a fast and straightforward way to collaborate.
How do I gain access to the collaboration hub on the strategicOS?
All your leadership team members will receive an account on our collaboration hub, granting them full access to the Plays, Assets and insights. The SaaS platform for collaboration is state-of-the-art and can serve as a central space for all your real-time strategic matters. No more worrying about slides and documents from different teams on shared drives that are lost or not up to date.
Can I use Venture Guidebook's strategicOS in self-service?
​
Tailoring the approach and steps to your specific needs and objectives is the most effective way to achieve quick results. We will likely offer entirely self-service tools in the future.

About us
What is Venture Guidebook?
To clarify upfront, it's not actually a book.
