How many people have heard of Strategic Planning Processes that have not worked? So often this is where leaders of organizations go off site for a few days and develop wonderful documents that describe a glorious future. However, after the session the leaders go back to work and within a few weeks resume what they were doing before the Strategic Planning Session started. There is a better way to go about Strategic Planning. First, ask yourself, which is more important; a high level Vision and beautiful Strategies or a means for tactically implementing specific changes? The correct answer in my opinion is that both are equally important. Without a good high level Vision and Strategies an organization is doomed to failure. Without a good means to implement change to achieve the Vision through well-defined Strategies; the high level Vision and Strategies are meaningless. Implementing specific changes that are not linked to a Vision are potentially worthless. A secret is that the two must be effective and linked. A Strategic Planning process could also be described as a process for Managing Change. Should your Strategic Planning process not be producing the desired results, I suggest honestly examining your process and determine if you are confident you can improve it. If not look for a consultant that can demonstrate success with multiple client references. You cannot afford to operate without an effective process in today's competitive world.
