Our DNA

Turning your Strategy into great Decisions

StrategyFrame®AI started with a simple question: why do so many strategies fail, even though so much time, money and energy goes into them?

So we started rethinking strategy work. Simpler. Clearer. Closer to the decisions that actually matter. First came the StrategyFrame®, a method that strips strategy down to the essentials. Then the platform. Then an entire ecosystem.

Today, StrategyFrame®AI is the leading AI platform for strategy work in mid-sized companies. More than 100 companies use it, because better decisions are the one competitive advantage nobody can copy.

The Strategy Book

The book "Hope Is Not a Strategy" clears away the usual strategy myths and walks through every step of strategy work across the entire process. It delivers exactly the knowledge you need at each point in the workflow. With inspiration and real-world examples, it offers concrete, field-tested guidance for developing and executing strategy.

The strategy magazine

Strategies get developed, approved, communicated. And then? They disappear into day-to-day business. Not because they are bad, but because organizations aren't decisive enough to execute them. This first installment of the four-part magazine series "Hope Is Not a Strategy II" shows why classic strategy processes hit their limits, how AI exposes strategic weak spots and what organizations need in order to make good decisions consistently.

The Strategy Podcast

In the strategy and AI podcast "Hope Is Not a Strategy," Christian Underwood and Prof. Dr. Jürgen Weigand show every week how artificial intelligence is changing strategy work and how companies benefit from it. No dry theory, just real examples from companies that use AI as a strategic enabler or have put it at the center of their business model.

How we work

Ambitious growth targets, freedom and a strong sense of team define the StrategySpirit

At StrategyFrame®, we give everything to enable companies to do strategy themselves. We combine visionary and pragmatic thinking and action across all of our products and services: in the software, in one-on-one coaching and in our Academy.

We value the wide latitude everyone has to work their own way and contribute ideas, while keeping close personal contact within the team. Can you keep the shared StrategySpirit alive remotely?

No problem, but the most special moments come at our internal StrategyCamps or at our annual event, the StrategySummit, where we bring managing directors and strategy visionaries together in one place, build connections and spark new strategic thinking.

  • A shared goal: growth and development.
  • Room for your personality and your ideas.
  • Close collaboration as equals
  • StrategySpirit: internal StrategyCamp events and the annual StrategySummit.
