Notes de l'éditeur

  1. Who is in the room? How many have led or participated in SP process? Developing a strategic plan is the first step in leading a strategic organization. The efficacy of the plan is judged not by how many goals you achieve, but in how well you utilize the plan to strategically lead your organization. According to the Balanced Scorecard Institute, strategic organizations implement processes to “systematically coordinate and align resources and actions with mission, vision and strategy.”
  2. Gallup Survey - “…that engagement arises from when employees clearly know their roles, have what they need to fulfill their roles, and can see the connection between their individual role and the purpose of the organization.”  --37% lower absenteeism --25% lower turnover (in high-turnover organizations) --65% lower turnover (in low-turnover organizations) --28% less shrinkage --48% fewer safety incidents --41% fewer patient safety incidents --41% fewer quality incidents (defects) --10% higher customer metrics --21% higher productivity --22% higher profitability”
  3. Align executives, staff, and board members around a common strategy: connect the dots between mission and programs, to specify which activities and resources will be required to deliver those programs, and to establish performance measures that allow everyone to understand whether the desired results are being achieved. Without this kind of clarity, it’s difficult for everyone to be sure they’re moving in the same direction. Develop the leadership team’s capacity for strategic thinking - the way your organization approaches decision-making. The questions posed during business planning are not the sort you answer only once. Rather, leadership team members find themselves applying the approach they took to developing their business plan to opportunities and questions that arise down the road. At the end of the day, that is why so many nonprofit organizations find business planning truly energizing and transformational Identify capabilities and new leadership positions needed to take the organization to the next level – specifically related to staff – right staff in the right seats.
  4. Focus on granular minutiae, running mind-numbing autopsies on the events of this year, using anecdotes in place of data, and generally thinking tactically
  5. Funding environment: Are you seeing major shifts in the type and level of support your traditional funders are offering? Do you have a new funder who is concerned about the viability of your organization? Policy environment: Have new policies created opportunities or challenges that will dramatically affect what you can achieve as an organization? Competitive environment: Are new program models emerging that create opportunities for you to serve your beneficiaries more effectively and efficiently? Have new competitors or potential collaborators entered the space in which you’ve been operating? Organizational leadership: Do you have a new executive director or new board leadership at your helm?
  6. Strengths, Weakness, Opp, Threats, Trends Appricative Inquiry Brainstorm priorities and then narrow/winnow them down Create scenarios based on the trends, forecasts, from HPM, healthcare and your community – aging of america is an example The process should fit within the context of your organizational culture, the timeframe, resources etc No matter what process you select, and I’ve used all of these, the next slides have my essentials for any SP process followed by some other important aspects of planning
  7. Engaging “content experts” and the implementation team in the process Establishing a framework for decision making Setting stretch goals that are realistic given your resources Assigning responsibilities and a time line Communicating the plan and progress towards goals on a regular basis Developing a monitoring and reporting process to track implementation

  12. Engaging “content experts” and the implementation team in the process Establishing a framework for decision making Setting stretch goals that are realistic given your resources Assigning responsibilities and a time line Communicating the plan and progress towards goals on a regular basis Developing a monitoring and reporting process to track implementation
  13. Earlier I mentioned facilitated strategy debate – this is where/when that begins Use a descriptive vision as a launching pad to guide the planning. This may change over time Similar to Collin’s envisioned future and vivid description - what we aspire to become, achieve, etc
  14. Surveys, focus groups, etc. Referrers, board, staff, volunteers, partners, young, older, etc guestimates are made using real data Next slides include questions
  15. Use them individually, or as a group exercise ahead of your next strategic planning session: 1. What is the one thing your organization* was worst at this year? What single thing most needs to happen to fix it? 2. What is the one thing your organization did best this year? What do you need to do to turn that success into a repeatable process? 3. Which individual was most responsible for standing in the way of your organization's success this year? What are you going to do about it? Which department, division, team or function was most responsible for standing in the way of your organization's success this year? What are you going to do about it? 4 Which individual was most responsible for your organization's success this year? What are you going to do about it? . Which department, division, team or function was most responsible for your organization's success this year? What are you going to do about it?
  16. What is the single metric or measurement you least liked hearing about this year? What will you do to prevent the same thing happening next year? What is the single metric you will measure your success by (not how anyone else will measure your success-- how you will measure your own success). What are you doing about it? If you fired yourself today, and came back tomorrow as a new boss with a clean sheet, what would you do?** If a perfect competitor opened up across the street from you tomorrow, what would they be like?***
  17. Collins questions - What is our organization passionate about doing for our people and our customers? And What are we best at and where can we continue to excel? Resource engine Who will our customers be five years from now? What do we think will be important for us to deliver in best serving them? What are capabilities we want to put in place to stretch our organization and better serve our audiences? What are the things we need to concentrate on to dramatically exceed our goals and objectives?
  18. The format has to work for you, your staff and the board. Following slide shows one that I’ve used (with modifications) for years.
  19. You may have a module within one of your IT systems that can serve as a dashboard/
  20. Reporting system in Excel – can be put on SharePoint – monthly or quarterly at a minimum Tab for each goal Objectives, initiatives, timeline, responsibility, indicators and status – color coded and standardized Notes allow for succinct narrative updates
  21. Review the goals with all your clinical and administrative coordinators, managers, and leaders.  Make sure they understand each goal, and encourage them to ask questions and even challenge the feasibility of the goals. Ask each department/team to select one goal and work as a team to directly relate their work with that goal.  Give them a tool to help them think through and chart their progress or actions that help the organization reach the goal.  This shouldn’t be arduous – it should be something simple that allows them to make the connection between their work and the goal.  If the goal is streamlining systems to achieve efficiencies, they need to be able to easily track their efforts to safeguard the organization’s resources. At each staff meeting, ask a team/department to report out on their work with the strategic goals. Again, keep it simple; this doesn’t require a 20 slide PowerPoint.  It can be fun and lighthearted or a short review of their progress.  The staff just needs a sense of how everyone is contributing to the success of the organization.
  22. Is it central to the brand, its representation, or delivery of the brand promise? Does it broadly and/or directly affect key audiences for your brand? Could it significantly attract or disaffect customers and prospects? Does it significantly affect organizational structure or alignment? Could it materially affect the brand’s financial prospects? Does it touch the heart of the core purpose, values, and/or vision of the organization? Will the organization’s supply of resources or raw materials be dramatically affected?
  23. An engaged organization develops the plan – meaning it isn’t just the board and leaders – everyone plays a role.  Doesn’t matter if you have 50 employees or 5,000.  There are ways of engaging everyone. Data – educated guestimates A great strategic plan has some stretch goals or BHAGs as Jim Collins calls them as well as reasonably achievable goals. The plan is actionable – meaning it isn’t just a list of aspirational goals or a laundry list of things that you are already doing.  Can be used as a tool to guide the work of teams and departments – if it sits on a literal or virtual shelf, only dusted off when you need to report outcomes to your stakeholders, then it is useless.   The Gallup data points to the need to integrate strategic planning “check-ins” into your organization’s processes on a regular basis.
