STRATEGIC PLANNING
Strategic planning is a disciplined effort. In the end, it produces fundamental decisions and actions that shape
and guide what an organization is, who it serves, what it does and why. With a focus on the future, effective strategic
planning also articulates how an organization will know if it is successful. A successful strategic plan sets priorities,
focuses energy and resources, strengthens operations, and ensures that employees and other stakeholders are work-
ing toward common goals. Strategic planning answers three key questions:
• Where are we?
• Where are we going?
• How will we get there?
Where are we?
Consider the foundational elements of your mission statement, values and/or guiding principles, and SWOT
(strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats) to assess where your business is — what is happening internally and
externally — and determine what changes you need to make.
Where are we going?
The future is impossible to predict, but contemplating scenarios will focus your attention and help you define the
future for your business. Specifically, compare your organization to your competitors. What do you do best? What
makes you unique? What can your organization potentially do better than any other organization? Answering these
questions will help you formulate a picture of what your future make up will be and where you are headed.
How will we get there?
This is the meat of your strategic plan. It’s also the most time consuming. There are a number of routes from your
current position to your vision, and picking the right one will determine how quickly or slowly you get to your final
destination. Determine your strategy, set short and long term goals, and develop action items to get you there. Iden-
tify issues that surround management and monitoring of the action items.
Remember, strategic planning is about growing and improving your company. When you don’t plan, the best you can
hope for is maintenance of the status quo. Further down the line, you can expect challenges that will significantly
damage or destroy your organization.
The Seven Rules
In addition to answering the three questions above, effective strategic planning requires following 7 critical rules.
1. Pick the right players.
Selecting who should be part of the planning team is an important question. It is essential that planning team mem-
bers are people who are committed to the growth of the company, and who can provide valuable input to the process.
Unless there is a key employee or manager you want to develop, this is not a time to include every member of your
staff. Vet each team member, ensuring each is of the quality and stature (i.e. gets work done and is respected within
the company) required to be part of the planning group. Members of the planning team must maintain complete
2. Strategic Planning & G.
Employers are looking for ways to improve engagement as quit rates rise. To increase engagement, companies should:
1. Make engagement a priority at senior levels and hold all departments accountable for improvements.
2. Measure engagement regularly to get a baseline and track progress.
3. Create employee teams to analyze results and develop engagement plans, clearly communicating survey findings and action items to employees.
Focus on collaboration, teamwork, communication, leadership development, and positive employee experiences to build belonging, trust and meaning in work. Recognize individual and team accomplishments to improve engagement.

More Than a Good Story
1. Jake and Rocket a cartoon guy and his cartoon dog, can be found on most of the apparel and other branded products sold by the Life is Good Company. With his perky beret (or other appropriate head gear), Jake has that contended look of being able to enjoy life as it is and finding reasons to be happy right now, and Rocket? Well he is just happy to be along for the ride. And what a ride it’s been for the two! They’ve been part of the company growth to over $100 million in revenues. Company co-founders and brothers, Bert and John Jacobs have a personal and Business philosophy much like Jake; simplicity, humor and humility. However both understand that even this philosophy they need to be good managers throughout the organization in order to stay successful.
2. Bert and John designed their first tee shirts in 1989 and sold them door-to-door in college dorms along the East Coast and in Boston where they’d set up shop using an old card table in locations on one way streets so they could pick up and move quickly if they needed to. They used this simple approach because like many young entrepreneurs, they couldn’t afford required business licenses. Although they met a lot of wonderful people and heard a lot of good stories during those early years, sales weren’t that great. As the company legend goes, the brothers “lived on peanut butter and jelly, slept in their beat-up van, and showered when they could.” During one of their sales trip parties, Bert and John asked some friends for advice on an assortment of images and slogans they had put together. Those friends (some of whom now work for the company) liked the “Life is Good” slogan and drawing of Jake that had been sketched by the John. So Bert and John printed up to 48 Jake shits for a local street fair in Cambridge, Massachusetts. By noon 48 shirts were gone, something that had never happened! The brothers were smart enough to recognize that they might be on to something. And, as the old saying goes…..the rest is history! Since that momentous day in 1994, they’ve sold nearly 20 million Life is Good shirts featuring Jake and Rocket. Bert attributes their success to his belief that the “ the ‘Life is Good’ message, coupled with the carefree image of Jake,
was simple enough to swallow, light enough to be mistaken for preachy, and profound enough to matter.” He goes on to say that, “Note that we don’t say ‘Life is great!’ We say life is
good, period. These simple words, People connect with it instantly.”
3. Another important facet of Life is good is their commitment to good causes. And those aren’t just “words” to Bert and John; they act on their words. They are passionately involved with Project Joy, which is a nonprofit organization that fosters the development of at risk children through the art of play. Bert says their partnership with Project Joy aligns with Life is good’s philosophy. The financial

Millenials appraisal
1. Appraisal for Millennial – its not a one time event
1. Continuous Communication for 365
days: Appraisal time should be seen as
formalizing the entire years feedback.
Avoid making it a big event. Prevent
Anxiousness
2. Give Time: Let the team member
have multiple sessions to prepare and
express their work. Remember not all
good workers are good at showing
what they have done. They assume
you know their contribution and hard
work
3. Be Honest: Its imperative to
give honest feedback (both
positive and negative) for their
development. Help them make a
plan of development and follow
up through the year to ensure
they are working on it.
4. There are no bad jobs, just bad
bosses: Keep in touch with new
trends. Share your latest and cool
experiences. Re-invent your self.
