Strategic Planning for Regional
Development Organizations
Many RDOs mistakenly use the CEDS as their
organizational strategic plan
Many RDOs have too many “priorities” and are
unable to advance any of them in a meaningful
way. Jack of all trades, master of none.
Best to focus on a limited number of key
initiatives and achieve those, then add more

Too many organizations fail to maximize their impacts because
they apply finite resources to infinite needs. They become a
“jack of all trades” and a master of none.

Staffing

Leadership Challenge #5

be available in the coming months resulting from the
Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) and you see an
opportunity to help attract some of these dollars to
your community. In order to pursue this, you need to
add professional staff members to your organization,
but your Board of Directors is hesitant to hire new
staff without a guaranteed revenue stream.
How do you advance this issue with your Board?
>Risk Tolerance
Talent
Attraction

Leadership Challenge #6
In the post-pandemic era, it has become
increasingly difficult to recruit, retain, and afford
professional staff for your organization.

dynamics to ensure you have adequate and
qualified staff to carry out the organization’s
programs and strategies?

Staffing

Staffing for Regional Organizations
 Staffing for a regional development organization is best described as “talent
management”
 Talent management is the practice of attracting, retaining, developing and promoting
outstanding talent to serve the organization.
 Talent management should be formed from the organization's mission, values, and goals.
 An effective talent management system helps employees feel as if they are part of something
bigger than their current job
 Without the right talent in key areas, you run the risk of missing out on emerging
opportunities.
 You need to constantly be planning ahead –identifying and nurturing future
leaders.
 You need to understand how to attract today’s emerging talent
 You need to be able to offer the necessary challenges and career development to
motivate/retain top performers
 You need to weed out poor performers, poor performers undermine productivity
and erode morale

leave? What

we don’t and
they stay?
