SUMMARY:Strategic Planning: Creating A Roadmap for Uncertain Times
DESCRIPTION:WEBINAR \nCertificate Program: Executive Leadership \nDescription: \nA good strategic plan helps you create a shared vision for the future that is grounded in your values and realized through your mission. A plan with clear and elastic strategies can help you keep your eye on the prize no matter what happens along the way. At its best\, strategic planning is a reflective and collaborative process that lets you step back from day-to-day responsibilities and think about where you want to be in 3-5 years and what you need in order to get there. It results in a set of overarching goals with realistic strategies for achieving those goals. A successful strategic plan is supported by a detailed development and implementation plan with a series of objectives and tactics that together create a blueprint for the future. \nThe successful completion of a strategic planning process can result in: \n\nClear mission statement;\nCompelling vision for the future that will excite and engage all stakeholders;\nStatement of core values to guide short-term and longer-term decision making;\nShared understanding of the strategic issues facing your organization and a set of goals\, strategies and initiatives that will address those issues;\nA deep understanding of the external philanthropic\, programmatic\, political\, and economic trends that impact your field;\nA roadmap for financial sustainability and diversification utilizing traditional and entrepreneurial income generation;\nA dynamic communications and marketing strategy;\nAn assessment of the infrastructure and human resources needed to achieve and sustain successful growth; and\nRealistic performance measures designed to assess your impact as you implement the plan.\n\nA thoughtful and inclusive planning process will also ensure: \n\nBuy-in for the plan from the board and staff; and\nInterest in the plan and support from external stakeholders including funders\, partners and allies.\n\nIn this workshop\, participants will: \n\nLearn about best practices in strategic planning and how to articulate strategic questions to guide the process.\nLearn how to assess internal strengths and weaknesses\, external opportunities and threats\, and how to use that information to shape goals.\nLearn how to engage board\, staff and other stakeholders in the planning process.\nDiscuss how to develop an RFP that will help you find the right consultant.\nReview the average costs of strategic planning.\nLearn how to monitor and adapt plans going forward.\nParticipate in a conversation about the challenges of strategic planning – time\, cost\, incorporating planning into day-to-day activities\, etc.\nLearn what makes a plan a viable\, living document – not something that sits on a shelf gathering dust.\n\nLearn more about our certificate programs! \nFacilitator:\n \nFrank Abdale is the Founder and Chief Consultant of Abdale Consulting\, LLC.
