• Scan the environment with a simple SWOT and turn the findings into a small set of strategic choices
• Prioritise competing demands with explicit trade-offs instead of trying to do everything
• Connect team goals to the organisation's strategy so every member can say why their work matters
• Build a simple team plan across now/next/later horizons and communicate it clearly
