  8. Strategic Planning Definitions Strategic planning is a vision of what the organization should be.  It provides a framework which guides choices that determine the nature and direction of an organization.   --Ben Tregoe Strategic planning is the process by which guiding members of an organization envision its future and develop the necessary procedures and operations to achieve that future. --Pfeiffer, Goodstein, and Nolan

  9. The Essence of Strategic Planning:Spirit & Order

  10. The Essence of Strategic Planning: (Focused) Spirit & (Flexible) Order FOCUS (from AFP’s current strategic plan): “It was also agreed that AFP’s existing Core Ideology Purpose, Values, Mission and Vision – would not change.  Core Ideology clarifies what doesn’t change for an organization despite changes in the business environment.” 

  11. The Essence of Strategic Planning: (Focused) Spirit & (Flexible) Order FLEXIBILITY(from AFP’s current strategic plan): “An emphasis is being placed on clearly defining measurable outcomes for the goals and specific metrics to measure the outcomes.  The outcome statements are intended to define what success will look like when AFP has achieved the goal.  Defining the outcomes is critical to setting targets for the future.”
