Strategic Thinking and Business Planning



 

 

Introduction

The best way to predict the future is to create it! Strategic Planning is a process that determines the future of the organization and what organizational resources will be needed to ensure success. The process involves determining what business opportunities exist and what resources are available to capitalize on those opportunities. 

The Strategic Planning Process provides a format for developing a Strategic Plan, taking that strategy through the business planning process and establishing measurable goals. It is a process that involves not only determining where a company is going, but also how it is going to get there.

This process is designed for those who have little or no planning experience.
