39. ENSURING BUY-IN OF THE INVOLVED PERSONNEL
A new initiative without staff support is like dough without yeast: Work as
you might, you'll never get it to rise to success. With the right approach, Cherry
Mobile will conquest over even the most change-averse staff.
A key element in the process is the engagement of all levels of staff
throughout the organization of Cherry Mobile. Staff engagement generates
additional input and helps build their commitment to the end plan. It is essential
to involve employees in the planning of strategy and direction for the
organization. Personnel’s input will:
Provide insight into issues, challenges, concerns, and opportunities which
may not have been known or fully understood. Ensure their "buy-in" to help
execute the strategies.
The senior management team will not execute the strategies - staff will.
Engage them and your strategy execution success rate will increase
dramatically.
38
40. Ensuring processes are successful when a bottom up and top down
communication approach is taken. It starts off with a communication to all
levels of employees informing them that a Planning process will be undertaken.
It includes how they will be involved in this process. This is the bottom up
communication. Employees will provide input to the strategic planning process
through feedback surveys, focus groups, meetings, etc. regarding their ideas for
organizational direction, etc.
It is followed by the top down communication. Senior management will
share the strategic plan with employees. They will communicate to all
employees how their engagement will help ensure success in the execution of
these strategies. Include strategies to develop a new product or deliver a new
service or re-structure a department, etc. They put teams of individuals together
to work on these major initiatives and give them investment money to ensure
success.
The high level of involvement of personnel ensures that they understand
the strategic plan. It increases their level of commitment to ensure the strategy is
successfully executed because they understand how their work and the work
they’re completing on the project helps the organization of Cherry Mobile to
realize some or all of one of their key strategies.

41. MONITORING AND EVALUATION SYSTEM
Monitoring focuses on the appropriate and timely provision and use of
project resources focusing primarily on inputs and outputs; evaluation focuses
on whether the expected impacts were achieved. Both monitoring and
evaluation systems assume that before the project which Cherry Mobile’s
AMBER unit was implemented, the designers conducted a problem or situation
analysis, determined the proximate and underlying causes of the problem they
wanted to address, and developed the project to deal with these specific
causes, linking project inputs with desired outcomes and impacts. In the context
of this analysis of the linkages from inputs to outputs to outcomes to impacts,
financing is considered a given; the project’s input are the resources and
services purchased with project funds.
