I know many people would rather be having root canal work done than spend a day focusing on strategic planning!
But it doesn’t have to be that way.
Strategic Planning isn’t about putting a bunch of words on flip charts, wordsmithing them, and setting goals no one has energy to work on . . . It’s:
- Figuring out who you really are
- Identifying what matters most
- Examining how you make decisions
- Analyzing the impact of your decision-making on what success looks like
- Articulating specific results that will give you tremendous energy
- Determining strategies to connect you, your team, and your organization with the goals.
- be very INTERACTIVE;
- ENGAGE everyone to look at what choices align with success;
- empower a group to collectively DEVELOP real strategies and measurements that make sense and JUMP OFF THE PAGE!
