The
Point: In leading strategic planning sessions, I noticed two problems:
First, it was difficult to actually explain strategic planning in everyday
language, and help people see how it can be used in real life to make
a real difference in what people do every day. The second problem was
that people tended to forget that just doing a plan is worthless without
serious followup after the fact. So I created two quick-read helpcards
on the subject to deal with these issues. This card, the first of the
two part set, maps out the process and the linkages to make plans link
to everyday activities.
What's in it: Written by consultant and and author Robert Bacal, An Integrated Strategic Planning Model Helpcard maps out the steps in the strategic planning process. What's different about an INTEGRATED model is that it brings together strategic and tactical planning under one umbrella, so that strategic plans can be USED to make day to day decisions.
That's one of the secrets of making strategic planning documents come ALIVE, and not end up gathering dust in the backs of desk drawers. This 2 sided 8.5 x 11 inch card provides dozens of hints, tips and principles to help you get through to the boss. Here's what is on the card:
- The Purpose of Integrated Strategic Planning - What's It For?
- Understanding The Process.
- The Components of Planning, From Defining Organizational Values, Through Sub-Unit Integration.
- Important Notes & Tips On Planning
Usage: These cards can be used to refresh oneself on the strategic planning process, so they are appropriate for all managers looking to improve their planning. They are extremely useful as handouts before or during strategic planning sessions, to save time in explaining the process. So, they are ideal for facilitators and strategic planning leaders. We offer bulk licence arrangements for the latter.
