**Quarterly Planning That Actually Works – A Case Study in Enterprise Collaboration**

Quarterly Planning is everywhere in large companies, but let’s be honest…it rarely delivers.

Management sets goals behind closed doors, teams scramble to respond, and “commitments” get made without context.

In my experience, many planning events are run like scaled-up project management exercises - top-down, rigid process, and often consultant-led - even when the stated goal is a collaborative team model.

And smaller companies often avoid it altogether, fearing it will turn them into a bureaucratic machine.

But the truth is that - done right - Quarterly Planning can be your most powerful tool for building end-to-end, agile, team-led delivery.
This talk walks through a real-world case study that shows how to make it work.

**What you’ll take away**
**1.** A demystified view of Quarterly Planning, using a start-to-finish case study
**2.** The prep that actually matters—strategic review, prioritisation, and shaping
**3.** How to take your momentum into the quarter, and evolve into continuous planning
**4.** Your own draft plan to pilot and scale the approach in your org

**Networking:**

**🎉 New Monthly Networking Sessions – Let’s Experiment Together!**
Over the next few months, we're trying something new — **networking sessions** designed to help us connect, collaborate, and spark more conversations within our community.

A while back, Martin sent out a survey to hear what you'd like to see more of, and a clear theme emerged: **less time packed with talks, more space for meaningful connections**. So we’re taking that feedback to heart.
We’ve been experimenting with different formats — from casual conversation circles to creative collaboration activities — to keep things fresh and engaging. It’s all about exploring what works best for our group.

💡 Got an idea for a fun or meaningful networking activity? Want to facilitate a session? Let us know! We're always looking for **new speakers, fresh formats, and bold ideas**.

Come join us, share what you’re working on, and meet some awesome people along the way. We’re excited to see where this goes!
