Strategic Planning T/TA • Fact Sheet • Strategic Planning Tools • Resources and Publications
Strategic planning is a continual process for improving organizational performance by developing strategies to produce results. Our training and technical assistance (T/TA) enhances an agency's infrastructure for strategic planning and outcome-based management. The focus includes:
- organizational leadership,
- systemic change and change management,
- the supervisory role, and
- organizational structure and system design.
Our approach is based on the fact that strategic planning is a continuous process, which includes the following four stages:
We promote comprehensive and quality strategic planning by engaging leadership and key stakeholders to ensure commitment to the planning process. We help agencies build capacity by developing planning structures, implementing planning processes, and integrating multiple federal planning requirements to ensure realistic and workable plans.
We recognize that operationalizing an organization’s vision, values and practice principles, and including supervisors as change agents, are key to making and sustaining systemic change.
