Strategic Planning
Strategic planning is a roadmap for achieving your goals.
Sometimes planning is about charting a course for the future, and other times it’s about shifting and adapting to the challenges of today. With strategic planning, Strategies helps you understand your current state, clarify your vision and goals, identify potential hurdles and develop viable pathways to the future you envision. The Strategies’ process enables you to align your short-term business tactics with your long-term business goals as you develop strategic direction and hone focus for the future.
In the planning process, Strategies works with you to focus your priorities and create productive energy for your organization, engaging you in the content of your plan while freeing you from the burden of facilitating the planning process. Strategies recognizes that the process of strategic planning can be equally as valuable as the plan that is ultimately created. To maximize the value from both the process and the end product, Strategies ensures the planning begins with alignment between the owners’ personal goals and business goals, incorporates the right mix of individuals at each stage, includes thought-provoking questions, and spans beyond merely addressing financial goals to also address customer, business process, innovation, infrastructure, and organizational effectiveness goals as well.
The result of strategic planning is a delineated plan with clear objectives and initiatives, built specifically for your company’s needs and explicitly detailing guidelines for accountability and bottom-line success.
