Strategic Planning: Understanding the Process
A BoardSource eBook

They say that those who fail to plan are planning to fail. While it would be a rare organization that does NO planning, too often boards fall into one of two camps: planning for the near term, being essentially reactive to current conditions, or writing a strategic plan and then putting the plan on the shelf and never enacting its provisions.

Strategic Planning: Understanding the Process will guide you through an understanding of what strategic planning is and help you define the right plan for your organization. It will help determine your board’s and organization’s readiness to engage in the process; help you gather the materials you need and personnel who should be involved; then walk you and your board through the process, all the way to post-planning tips.
