The Big 5 of Strategy Program
Strategy isn’t just for senior leaders - it’s a muscle an entire workforce can build.
The Big 5 of Strategy framework helps you assess, grow and embed strategic competencies across roles, teams and your entire organisation - so strategy moves off PowerPoint slides and into action, every day.
Strategy isn't a plan. It's a skillset. Discover yours.
Take the only science-backed assessment that shows how you think and act strategically. It provides clear insights into 5 essential strategic competencies and 20 sub-competencies that drive real-world strategic capability. Take the assessment and work with a Big 5 of Strategy Certified Practitioner to grow your skills.
Do you wish you were more strategic?
The truth is, being strategic isn’t about a title, personality or merely about strategic thinking. It’s about capability - a set of skills you can learn, strengthen and grow. The Big 5 of Strategy is the first science-backed assessment designed to measure your strategic competencies. Built on cutting-edge research, this framework helps you identify how you naturally think and act strategically - and where you can improve.
Why does strategic competency matter?
Because strategy isn’t a plan - it’s how you think, decide, and act in complexity. Grow these skills to navigate your career with clarity and confidence.
Scientific research shows that the Big 5 of Strategy competencies are a stronger predictor of career success than traditional indicators. Strategic skills are in high demand because the world of work is changing rapidly, and organisations need people who can help navigate complexity, uncertainty and disruption. The future of work belongs to those with strategic competency. This is supported by the Work Economic Forum - Future of Jobs Report 2025.
