It is difficult for managers in any sized operation to escape the day-to-day hectic pace, since they are generally in the thick of operations and not insulated by support staffs. The approach presented in this course is very pragmatic, and should enable any organization or agency to address the critical components of strategic planning, while avoiding wasted effort in the plan makeup that often accompanies such efforts. This course places a priority on closure in the strategic decision making process and facilitates follow-up to help ensure that the planning effort is not a wasted annual exercise without closure. It will assist in setting a much clearer direction for the future.
