Forecasts are a substantial part of any “Business Plan”.

What tools do we have to make forecasts?
Innovation and salaries
Low salaries and innovation are incompatible in both companies and regional and country economic models. A reconsideration of the models and strategy would be necessary.
I was struck by a comment by Ricard Santomà [1], a few weeks ago, in a media:
“If you want to be a mediocre tourist destination, keep mediocre salaries”
Innovate: Ideas or strategy?
It is a fairly generalized fact to believe that innovation starts with “ideas”. According to this hypothesis, ideas are first raised and then become innovations.
But experience shows that the most successful companies with the most innovative continuity tend to be those that start from a strategic perspective.

Creating a new company is an exciting process in which, from the beginning, two factors should not be missing: innovation and agility.
Neither our environment and culture, nor the administration, will facilitate the process. Especially in terms of financing and support for new projects.
As for people, what is most striking is the lack of knowledge in basic business processes and the loneliness with they have to face decisions that can later be key.

The analyzes presented allow us to have a global vision of the subject and extract some trends.
Innovation and performance
Innovation and performance are not contradictory terms, but on the contrary, they are complementary. So that the higher innovation the better the performance.
However, they can produce tensions in the organization, since one is directed to the future and the other is a subject of the present. There are two basic processes that compete for resources. That is why I speak of 'harmonizing' innovation with performance.
Innovation is the fundamental resource to improve performance. But innovation is a change and it is a process that must be covered by the entire organization.

The strategy on one page
A single page should be sufficient to effectively communicate vision and strategy formulated through a few main or strategic axes.
That's why we present a model that is:
* A way to express the vision and strategy in a clear and summarized way.
* A tool to help SMEs.
* An efficient formulation with limited time and resources.
* A guide to define the strategic axes and clear objectives.
* Simplify communication.
* The construction is based on what we call "Strategy Tree".

Innovate
If we say to innovate is to bring good ideas to reality, with success and continuously, then is not the result of genius, chance or luck, it's a process. A process that is designed, implemented and improved in all companies and organizations and favors the creation of an innovative culture.
Innovating is no longer an option, it is imperative and it means:
.-Do something new. Innovate in products or services.
- Positioning in the market or segment in a different or new way. Innovate in the value proposition and in the positioning in the market.
- Do things differently. Innovate internal processes.
- Change paradigm. Create a new "mental model" or category.
