Strategic Planning for Success

Workshop Description: We often told of the importance of strategic planning but rarely have the opportunity to become informed about what a successful process should look like and where an organization should start.

This training workshop will cover the following:
  • What can strategic planning achieve or not achieve?
  • What are the steps and components of a successful process?
  • How does an organization get started?
  • What are the pitfalls and how can we avoid them?
This session will be suitable for both those who have very limited experience of strategic planning as well as those who have previously participated in a strategic planning process but would value a stronger grounding the steps and strategies for an effective approach.

Trainer: Sally Lewis of changeWorks consulting has many years experience in strategic planning in both the non-profit and for profit sectors. She has provided strategic planning training and support to organizations throughout Metrowest region and beyond and we are delighted she will be with us to share her skills with you.
