What is Strategic Laboratory?About the Strategic Laboratory
The Strategic Laboratory is a laboratory that reviews and carries out updates to the strategic planning framework “6e” and to the operations manuals for executing 6e smoothly in practice.
The Laboratory is composed of a limited group of members, including those who gather insights in practice, such as Strategists, Producers, and Solution Managers, as well as researchers who provide theoretical backing from an academic perspective.
The “6e” framework, updated by the Strategic Laboratory, is taught to Strategic Partners employees and partners at the Strategic Academy and is used to strengthen staff skills.
Background on the implementation of the Strategic LaboratoryBackground of the Strategic Laboratory
6e is, by nature, an adaptive framework that continues to be updated through research. In today's VUCA era, strategies and tactics should change with the times. At the regularly held Strategic Laboratory, updates to 6e are discussed and implemented as needed. By continuing to be updated, 6e remains an appropriate framework for any era.
Through the Strategic Laboratory, in which both practitioners and researchers participate, 6e reflects and builds a highly reliable framework backed by academic rigor that is not skewed by practitioners' biases or assumptions, while also preventing the creation of armchair theories that are out of touch with practice and cannot actually be applied—a common pitfall in academic fields.
