Effective strategic planning for a nonprofit begins with clarity on the organization's mission, vision, and values. Whether the goal is growth or long-term sustainability, the process requires time and commitment. It's also important to define clear metrics that track progress and impact. A strong strategic plan should be supported by an annual operating plan that outlines actionable steps. At this session, you will learn about a process for conducting strategic planning, go through exercises that will help spark thinking for your own planning, and learn first-hand from Relate who recently completed their strategic planning process.
