Remember…
- Strategic planning is a cyclical and disciplined process that moves organizations from a place of assorted perspectives, ideas, and possibilities to a space of aligned and focused direction.
- Depending on your nonprofit’s structure and other considerations, strategic planning is a shared responsibility across staff, board, and/or volunteers that may be enhanced by participation of clients and community members.
- Common strategic planning components include: mission, vision, values, intended impact, identify statement, strategic priorities, outcomes, and objectives. You may include some or all of these components as you craft a strategic plan right-sized for your nonprofit.
