Strategic Planning
Knowing your purpose for being, and aligning your efforts around a deep understanding of that purpose, is at the core of a solid strategic planning process. Our approach centers around the strategic thinking that is needed before an operational plan can be developed.
Key components include:
External and internal stakeholder input
A Board retreat to begin those strategic thinking conversations
A Strategy Committee that takes the lead in helping form the plan
A partner in Mosaic that will facilitate the process and create the Strategic Roadmap document
Team Building
We can work with small or groups especially in the areas of culture alignment, managing change and team effectiveness. A combination of training, consulting and coaching is available.
Board/Staff retreat facilitation
Having a neutral and experienced facilitator can really make a retreat a productive and -- yes -- fun experience. Let us assist you from designing the flow, to creating the materials, to facilitation of processes to achieve the expected outcomes.
There are several design options to choose from. A straightforward retreat facilitation with retreat summary notes to additional coaching and consulting support to fully integrate the outcomes you desire. Please call me and we can discuss what meets your needs ~ 408-466-0604.
