  2. Putting strategy into action “Strategy is the direction and scope of an organisation over the long-term: which achieves advantage for the organisation through its configuration of resources within a challenging environment, to meet the needs of markets and to fulfill expectations of different target groups.”

  7. Organisational cultureLearning Organization (LO) “The LO concept was developed to help organisations cope with the rapid acceleration in the pace of change – a challenge also facing every NSO. Additionally, the LO approach is one that encourages Members to be involved and contribute to the NSO’s development. Member involvement is a growing expectation at all levels and the LO approach will help us to meet that expectation.”

  8. Organisational cultureKey organisational behaviours • Involve and consult our membership at all levels whenever possible • Flatten organisational structures • Share information and store it in an accessible way so that everyone can see the whole picture and can therefore contribute to discussions • Encourage learning and personal development…this is what we should be doing in Scouting anyway! • Regular external stimulus for the organisation's thinking and development • Adopt a holistic approach to strategy
