What
Is Strategic Planning?
PRE-SESSION PLANNING
Through telephone interviews and/or mailed surveys,
Group Dimensions International will help you assess
the needs and interests of key players in advance of
your strategic planning session. This step facilitates
consensus-building and maximal use of strategic planning
time.
SITUATION ANALYSIS
GDI will review past strategic plans, annual reports,
and other organizational documents to prepare a "situation
analysis" that will help key players grasp the
central issues quickly--before the session begins. We
will integrate data from the needs assessment and the
situation analysis to help you develop a program that
leads to creative planning and visioning.
FACILITATION
Suzanne Szabo and Janet Billson are seasoned, expert
facilitators with broad experience in engaging all participants,
managing dominants, and resolving conflicts. They will
keep your strategic planning session on time and on
target, and will make sure that your session goals are
met.
FOLLOW-UP AND FEEDBACK
GDI will summarize the highlights of your strategic
planning session, which will help you finalize your
plans, goals, and objectives for future organizational
development.
