Communicating strategy clearly—with the Big Picture model

The video is AI-generated and shows an example application scenario.
Corporate mission statements, strategies and visions of the future are crucial for the direction of a company - but they often remain abstract and difficult to grasp.
A big picture makes your goals, values, and strategic priorities visible and creates a common understanding among management and staff.

Clarity for vision, mission statement and strategic orientation

A strong mission statement and a clear strategy provide orientation - but only if they are understood by everyone. Big Pictures translate vision, values and strategic priorities into a tangible overall picture that can be grasped immediately.
This creates a shared understanding of where the company stands, where it is heading and what is really important for teams.

Vision & Strategy

The vision describes where your company is headed in the long term—the strategy defines how you will achieve this vision of the future. In the big picture, both elements are combined into a clear, understandable story: with target images, priorities, and initiatives that teams can immediately classify. This creates real orientation for everyday decisions.

KRONE Strategy 2030

The KRONE Group wanted to anchor its new "Strategy 2030" visually and internally in an understandable way, especially across the two business areas of agricultural machinery and commercial vehicles.
As a solution, a big picture was developed that depicts core topics, megatrends and the company's DNA in a circular image. This was supplemented by a Click Picture version with zoom-ins and info boxes.

"In challenging times, it is crucial that we keep an eye on the big picture. The Big Picture represents our shared journey, our identity and our vision for the future - across all business segments." Bernard Krone, Chairman of the Supervisory Board KRONE Group

Picture of the future

Pictures of the future show how products, markets, technologies or the organization will change. These developments become visible in the Big Picture: through scenes, perspectives and a comprehensible structure. This turns an abstract "target image 2030" into a tangible shared vision of progress and transformation.

Stadtwerke München (SWM) wanted to explain its vision of a sustainable, networked future in the areas of heating, mobility, energy and digitalization.

The result is a visual tool that conveys a shared image of the future to over 10,000 employees and creates orientation, identification and the ability to act.

Corporate mission statement

The mission statement anchors identity, values and attitude in the company. It comes to life in the Big Picture - not as a text module, but through concrete situations, examples and symbols. Employees recognize how the mission statement shapes everyday life and what significance it has for collaboration and decision-making.

Management guidelines

Leadership guidelines describe how leadership should be understood and practiced. A big picture turns abstract principles into clear, vivid situations: How is feedback given? How are decisions made? How is responsibility assumed? This creates a common understanding of what good leadership means in your company.

The CRIF Leadership Model

CRIF wanted to communicate the new "TRUST" management model in such a way that managers and employees understand it in a uniform way and can apply it in their day-to-day work.
The model was clearly structured with a big picture, supplemented with concrete examples and made jointly tangible for Germany and Austria. This turned an abstract concept into a practical orientation tool for leadership.

"Our Big Picture has made the new leadership model easier to understand and increased acceptance among managers and employees. Even at the first internal information events, we noticed that the originally abstract model became much more accessible for managers and employees thanks to the visualization."
