What is a strategic plan?
And why do you need one?
Strategy is about choices
Why do strategic planning?
• To focus your resources on the things that are
going to have the most impact.
• To give a sense of purpose and direction to your
staff.
• To not be surprised by (and suffer from) events
that happen inside and outside your organization.
Do you ever feel like your are
pulled in every direction?
Alignment with your
strategic priorities
Will help you and your team focus on what’s important.

5. We’re really good at talking and listening
6. We control the time and the tempo of the
meeting
7. Ongoing support
Some of the organizations we
have worked with

o Successes, Failures, Strengths, Weaknesses, Environmental Scan,
Inputs from team

o Vision, Mission, Values
The process
• What is going to get in our way?
o Risks, roadblocks, scenario planning
• What do we need to do to get there?
o Strategic priorities, tactics and KPI’s
MISSION
VISION
What is going to move the
needle on the vision?
SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES AND INITIATIVES

Our purpose….
One and two day agenda
overview
Strategic planning is a great
opportunity to create
change
The planning meetings are just the start.
Challenges with developing
strategy
• Lack of alignment
• People not buying into the plan
• Lack of direction
• Too many things to focus on
• Employees not empowered to make changes.
• Information silos
• Harvard business
review interviewed
26000 people at 31
companies to
determine what traits
align with strong
strategy execution.
• https://hbr.org/2008/
06/the-secrets-to-
successful-strategy-
execution
Three biggest challenge categories
• #1 Decision rights
• #2 Flow of Information
• #3 Motivators
Spoiler alert: These are all impacted with an aligned
strategic plan
