First, what is strategic planning and how can it propel your success?
At the core of every successful business lies a well-crafted strategic plan. But, you might be wondering, "How do I do strategic planning effectively?" NEWaukee’s seasoned consultants are here to demystify the process.
Understanding the Strategic Planning Process
Strategic planning requires a thoughtful approach. We start by engaging with our clients to understand their goals and desired outcomes for the strategic planning session(s). Through collaborative pre-session discussions, we determine who should be involved in the strategic planning process to ensure comprehensive insights and diverse perspectives.
Our strategic planning process is a meticulous series of steps designed to unlock your organization's potential:
Pre-Session Goal Setting: We kick off the process by defining clear and achievable goals for your organization. This sets the foundation for the entire strategic planning endeavor.
Identifying Key Stakeholders: Determining who should be involved in the strategic planning process is crucial. We help you identify key stakeholders whose insights are vital for a comprehensive strategy.
Transparent Run-of-Show: Prior to the strategic planning session, we provide a detailed run-of-show and deck that outlines in advance the exercises we will lead the team through. The client is able to review and provide suggestions if there are additional topics they want to cover.
Guided Self-Reflection and Group Work Exercises: During the session(s), our consultants take leaders through a series of prompts and questions, providing opportunities for self-reflection and group work exercises. This unique approach ensures everyone’s opinions are heard and elevated—not just those with the loudest voices.
Strategic Planning Templates and Workbooks: We equip you with powerful strategic planning templates and workbooks, streamlining the planning process and facilitating effective documentation.
Full-Day Summit or Series of Shorter Meetings: Tailoring our approach to your needs, we can host either a full-day summit or a series of shorter meetings. Flexibility is key, ensuring that your strategic planning experience is both impactful and convenient.
The In-Person Advantage
If you opt for in-person strategic planning, NEWaukee can handle all the logistics, leaving you to focus on what matters. Our team is able to manage everything from booking a venue to coordinating audio-visual requirements and catering services.
