Strategy: Mid-Year Strategic Reset – Rethink, Reprioritise, Re-energise

Halfway through the year, strategy needs more than review—it needs a reset.

June is not about performance summaries. It’s about strategic recommitment. Too many leadership teams default to tracking lagging indicators and reaffirming original plans. But the world moves fast. Has your strategy kept up?

Start with a candid executive alignment session. Ask:
• What’s working better than expected—and why?
• What bets have stalled—and should we double down, pivot, or walk away?
• Which risks or opportunities have emerged since January?

At Jellyfish Consulting, we encourage clients to treat June as a “boardroom QBR”—with bold decision-making, not polite reporting. Use this moment to refine strategic themes, tighten focus and reallocate attention—not just budgets.

Also, cascade the reset. Reframe messaging to frontline teams, shift OKRs and recalibrate the year’s narrative. A great H2 starts with brutal clarity at the halfway mark.

You don’t finish strong by staying the course. You finish strong by adjusting it, fast.
