How to Use the X‑Matrix

How to Create an X‑Matrix

Deploy­ing a strat­e­gy using the X‑Matrix is more than copy­ing details of the strate­gic plan into a tem­plate. Suc­cess­ful lev­el-by-lev­el deploy­ment requires mak­ing con­nec­tions between the actions, tar­gets, and the resources need­ed to meet our objec­tives. Learn what infor­ma­tion goes in each sec­tion of an X‑Matrix and the steps for cre­at­ing the top lev­el matrix.

The heart of strat­e­gy deploy­ment with the X‑Matrix is the process of cre­at­ing ambi­tious but achiev­able plans.

Learn how to begin with the top lev­el X‑Matrix and progress to lev­el 2 and beyond, fol­low­ing the tem­plate and a series of repeat­able steps.
