This entry is part 4 of 14 in the series Strategic Planning<\/a><\/div>

Here is what we will be looking at over the next several posts. I am not sure how many posts it will take to cover what I want to discuss. It might take some time to get all of my ideas down.<\/p>\n

The overall process of discussing this will take into account the five steps below. I think these are the basic steps in creating a Strategic Plan. There may be more or there may be less. Others may extend and expand on these or change them all together. Looking back on the many times I have lead or been involved with the SP process, it really boils down to these.<\/p>\n

Step One: Look to the Past<\/strong> – where have we been – what got us here – what has worked – what has failed.<\/p>\n

Step Two: Look at Now<\/strong> – what are we doing right – what is working – what needs to be addressed.<\/p>\n

Step Three: Look Toward the Future<\/strong> – what could we do – where might we go<\/p>\n

Step Four: Define your Goals<\/strong> – what can we rationally expect to achieve<\/p>\n

Step Five: Identify Initiatives\/Actions <\/strong>– how are we going to do it<\/p>\n

These are the processes that most of us go through with many things in life. I will unpack each of these as we move forward.<\/p>\n
