Portfolio’s proprietary ReThink Process

ReThink

Portfolio’s ReThink Process is the backbone of our approach to strategic planning. This five-phase methodology ensures that strategies are not only visionary but also actionable and sustainable.
Unlike traditional models that emphasize static planning, ReThink prioritizes execution, embedding operational alignment and accountability into every phase.

Phases of the ReThink Process

01

ReView – Project Kickoff & Initial Research

We begin by launching the project and gathering initial insights. This phase focuses on onboarding stakeholders, conducting preliminary research, and identifying early opportunities to lay the groundwork for deeper exploration.

02

ReAlign – Stakeholder Engagement & In-Depth Research

This phase builds on the initial findings by engaging with stakeholders for deeper input. We conduct thorough research and a comprehensive SWOT analysis to refine objectives and establish a clear strategic direction.

03

ReDesign – Planning Framework

With insights and objectives in place, we focus on creating a detailed plan. This includes outlining key steps, timelines, and resources needed to develop a clear and actionable roadmap for achieving goals.

04

ReInforce – Securing Commitment

Here, we work to secure full commitment from stakeholders. By presenting the plan, addressing feedback, and aligning priorities, we ensure strong support for successful execution.

05

ReAct – Execution & Adaptation

In this phase, the plan is put into action. We closely monitor progress, adapting as challenges arise to ensure the strategy stays on track and delivers successful outcomes.
