StrategicPlanning(4 days) How to create and put into practice successfully a strategic plan for an organisation Courseoverview Strategic planning helps an organisation to formulate a strategy how to best achieve its goals and how to define an operational plan to get there. It looks into the future and provides direction for the entire organisation. Strategic planning helps non-government and non-profit organizations to determine the process to achieve results and goals over several years. As a management tool, strategic planning aids the organisation in its quest for excellence in attaining its goals. In the past, the term "long-term planning" was most often used in this context. However, the two are different: Strategic planning is responsive to a dynamic and changing environment. Longrange planning is based on the assumption that an extrapolation from the past and present circumstances into the future is sufficient to define a plan and to ensure its implementation. It is based on a stable environment. In this four-day course, participants first learn how to assess their organisation's internal factors and external circumstances - where are you now. The next step - where do you want to go - is to define organisational goals and to determine strategic options to achieve these goals. Vision and mission statements are reviewed and goals and objectives are set. The strategic plan - how to get there - is formulated based on the selected strategic option. Afterwards, participants translate strategic plans into operational plans by defining appropriate programs and projects, by establishing a plan of action and formulating performance indicators in key result areas. The last step is to identify and budget the resources needed and to examine external support mechanisms for this process. The training consists of structured learning exercises, case studies, workshops, lecturettes and discussions. Click here to download the course leaflet (PDF format).
