Strategic Framework Workshop
June 20, 9:00 – 11:00 am
Trainer: Cindy Colson, Director of Strategic Initiatives, CNE
Strategic planning is important to an organization because it provides a sense of direction and outlines goals. More recently organizations are stepping away from traditional strategic plans – detailed, specific activities to be pursued over a specified time frame – to a strategic framework that offers a sense of how an organization will approach its work. The framework is grounded in proactive responsiveness and adaptive leadership, balancing an organization’s long-term goals with the flexibility to take advantage of unexpected opportunities.
Participants will learn how to:
- develop an identity statement;
- create a strategy screen;
- understand the organization’s Big Question, and
- develop a strategic road map.
