Next Orbit Planning. The Annual Planning System for Growing in Multiples (en Inglés) - LS Kannan

Most growing businesses plan the same way, year after year. A familiar percentage. A comfortable number. The same orbit, different year.

Next Orbit Planning is a ten-step annual planning system for founders and leadership teams who are ready for something fundamentally different - not incremental growth, but genuine multiplication.

Built from two decades of working with Indian SMEs across manufacturing, trading, distribution, and services, this book walks through every dimension of the planning process with clarity and practical discipline.

Step by step, it covers: setting direction from purpose down to this year's target; choosing the right growth path based on market type and value driver; sorting the product portfolio to invest where it compounds; building a real marketing and sales plan with measurable outcomes; checking whether the organisation can actually deliver the growth; planning the right team structure for the future; budgeting by department rather than by guess; building the financial plan from the bottom up; and creating a review system that drives continuous learning throughout the year.

Each step builds on the previous one. Together they build the organisational capability that makes sustained growth possible, year after year, orbit after orbit.

This book is written for the founder who has been working hard for years and quietly wonders why the business has not become what it could be. 

Stop planning in percentages. Start growing in multiples.
