Making Strategy Simple: Practical Tools for Busy Charity Leaders (Link Up London)

Tuesday 29 September 2026
12:00 to 13:00

For many small charities and social enterprises, finding time to focus on strategy can feel impossible. Between funding pressures, rising costs and increasing demands, leaders often have a clear vision for the future but struggle to find the headspace to turn their ideas into a practical strategy.

This Lunch & Learn is designed to simplify the strategic planning process and help leaders move from ideas to action. Rachel will share straightforward tools and templates that make it easier to capture your thinking, engage stakeholders and develop a strategy that is clear, practical and proportionate to your organisation.

Join Rachel for an engaging and practical session covering:

  • How to break strategic planning into manageable, bite-sized stages.
  • The key questions that help shape an effective strategy.
  • Simple templates for capturing and communicating strategic thinking.
  • Approaches to consulting boards and stakeholders during the strategy process.
  • Tips for creating strategies that are clear, focused and easy to communicate.
  • Where to go deeper if you have the time and resources to expand your strategic planning process.

There will also be opportunities for discussion, reflection and questions throughout the session.
