Strategic Management SystemDefining goals, strategies, projectsto drive teaching, research, and service excellence Jan Williams Service Improvement Liaison
Acknowledgements(5/07) Creating urgency: new leadership/accreditation process = opportunity for change • Implementation; needs to start at the top • Process change; need to move to next level • Point person; need to determine role • Operational issues; demonstrated efficiencies • Best practices; VMC pilot (strategy mapping/balanced scorecard) • Lean six sigma structure; incorporating training across institution • Metrics; use of information • Challenge each other; decrease what’s done & hold each other accountable • Determine criteria for next dean; where do they fit
Goal:To create a dynamic process in order to execute an integrated strategic plan that satisfies its mission and achieves profitability while decreasing waste in order to reinvest in its teaching, research and outreach. • Objectives: • Define(where) - To align existing management processes to strategies by integrating and creating synergy between department/units and college • Measure(what) – To develop metrics • Analyze(why) - To plan, allocate resources, budget, report, communicate and review performance • Improve (how) - To utilize best practices to support effective strategy implementation • Control/Validate(monitor) –To incorporate cross-college strategy execution processes (continuous improvement)
Objectives of Strategic Management • Set clear goals (future direction) • Achieve buy-in (determine where we all fit) • Obtain accountability (performance management, metrics) • Create synergies (alignment of strategies/projects) • Determine resources (people, space, money) • Prioritize strategies/projects (based on the above)
Transformation • The College must respond to environmental changes: • Changes in the veterinary profession • Needs of society to meet workforce demands • Changing needs of our stakeholders and their animals • Accreditation standards: COE mandates • Decline in state & federal support • New Financial Model at the U of M • Transforming the U: Commitment to Excellence • AHC Research Corridors
Integration with AHC • Biomedical corridors of discovery transform new knowledge into better health • “Concept to Cure” • Areas of Emphasis • Heart and vascular disease • Cancer • Infectious disease • Diabetes • Brain, nerve & muscle disease • Drug design & delivery • New biomedical research buildings and associated faculty positions
Integration with University • Interdisciplinary Initiatives: • Institute on the Environment • Healthy Foods/Healthy Lives • Bioinformatics
What’s worked • Roles/Responsibilities • Definitions/common language • Adoption/use of tools • Project charters • Strategy mapping • Balanced scorecard approach • Decision making criteria • Leadership Development • Planning • Calendar of activity • Metrics • Retreats/meetings (use of)
