Strategic Planning for Clarity and Engagement

Change is constant, but it doesn't have to be uncertain. Done correctly, strategic planning is change management. This session will go over the elements of a strong strategic plan and exercises attendees can take back to their workplaces for greater staff buy-in, input, and continual process improvement. These elements include: mission/vision/values, goals, audiences, strategies/tactics & timelines, measurable objectives and key messages. This session will also emphasize how change happens in the everyday - it is not enough to simply create the plan, you must operationalize it. We'll detail how to bring the plan into the daily work for better meetings, less distraction, and more flexibility to pivot when things aren't going as planned.
