Progressive organizations characteristically maintain leadership through
attention to two levels of organizational planning:
Operational Planning involves typical cycles of 12 month budget and action
accountabilities and accomplishment progress. Operational plans assure that
day-to-day and month-to-month activity and accomplishment represent
progress in support of strategic organizational objectives. Operational
planning follows fiscal year cycles.
Operational plans focus on issues of control and efficiency.
Strategic Thinking and Planning is how progressive organizations anticipate
and design the future rather than reacting as the future engulfs them.
Strategic thinking involves creating a long range competitive vision for the
organization over a 2-4 year horizon. Strategy is designed to achieve a "
position" for the organization. A long range vision is predominantly
market driven in that the strategic planning process relies heavily on "
market based data" in revitalizing organizational mission, anticipating and
assessing strengths, weaknesses and threats, and targeting opportunities to
achieve desired position.
Strategic plans focus on issues of change, adaptation and innovation.
STRATEGIC PLANS HAVE COMMON CHARACTERISTICS:
review, revitalization, or re-inventing organization
a long range view of the organization's future (2-4 years)
integration of multiple data bases (fiscal & physical resources,
marketplace expectations, human resources, regulatory impact, financial
marketplace)
attention to marketing data from well defined and segmented
customer groups
a candid evaluation of weaknesses of, and threats to, the
organization
bold thinking in terms of "new" opportunities: markets,
expansion, developing or re-developing products / services, re-inventing
corporate purpose and product / service, partnerships
documented participation by constituent groups impacted by the
plan (e.g., boards, stakeholders, funders, management, employees, customers
/ clients, community)
contingency alternatives for potential and real organizational
threats
coordination of all organizational efforts into a systematized
plan: an outlined scenario of actions, resources, timelines, and
responsibilities.
"An organization unable to candidly challenge assumptions and
slay sacred cows is destined to mediocrity." Les Wallace | h********e 发帖数: 2823 | 2 Strategic planning is actually very hard to do while operational planning is
a lot easier. One of the main reasons is that strategic planning looks at
long range and things are changing so rapidly nowadays. Many organizations
think strategic planning as a waste of time, however, I still believe in its
value in strategically preparing an organization to face the challenge. | h********e 发帖数: 2823 | 3 By Hiddenlake and Google.

When conducting strategic planning, many mistakes may be made during the
process. Typical mistakes and ways to avoid them are outlined below.
1. Inadequate participation.
One typical mistake has to do with who to involve in the strategic planning
process. Sometimes the planning process only involves the executives and
managers, leaving out staff that will be implementing the plans. In other
strategic planning process, the management takes a “hands off” approach
and let the staff or consultants handle the whole process.
The way to correct this mistake is to involve both the executive management
as well as staff and employees who will be carrying out the strategic plan.
When all levels of the organization are involved, the planning process may
build stronger consensus and generate better “buy in” of the entire team.
As a result, the plans created out of the planning process will have a
better chance to be implemented effectively.
2. Lack of emphasis on implementation
One critical mistake that should be avoided is making little efforts in
implementing the plan. Without a concrete implementation plan or action plan
, the strategic plan is only a document on the shelf. To avoid this mistake,
particular attention should be put on outlining realistic and necessary
steps to implement the plans and translate the goals and objectives
identified in the strategic plans into practical action steps.
3. Lack of flexibility and adaptability
In a fast changing world like we are in now, one mistake when conducting
strategic planning is the failure to constantly monitor the changing
condition of the external environment. The strategic planning is an ongoing
process. It does not stop at the moment the plan is printed. New
opportunities and threats constantly emerge and the plan should allow for
flexibility to adapt to the external environment. Annual review to ensure
the plan is up-to-date and address new issues is recommended.
4. Failure to link the strategic plan to the budget plan
The implementation of any strategic plan requires resources. One common
mistake, however, is the failure to link the strategic plan to the budget
plan without allocating funding to plan actions. The management should make
sure both the strategic plan and the budget plan are in alignment with each
other and the implementation plan is adequately funded. | h********e 发帖数: 2823 | 4 By Hiddenlake and Wikipedia

SWOT analysis is a tool to evaluate the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities
and threats pertaining to an organization or a project. Through this
process, key internal and external factors that are important to achieving
the objectives of the organization are identified. The strengths and
weaknesses are internal to the organization, while the opportunities and
threats are presented by the external environment to the organization.
SWOT analysis is a very useful tool to be used during the strategic planning
process. It normally comes into play when the organization evaluates its
current environment, both internal and external. It can be performed after
the organization establishes its goals and objectives. SWOT analysis then
can be conducted as a basis for the analysis of the internal business and
external environmental factors. For internal environment, one can review the
aspects of systems, processes and people to identify strengths and
weaknesses. For external environment, one can review the aspects of the
immediate market as well as major forces such as the political, economic,
social and technology to identify opportunities and threats. Once the SWOT
analysis is completed, the organization can proceed to form strategies that
would best leverage the strengths, improve the weaknesses, exploit the
opportunities and minimize the threats. | h********e 发帖数: 2823 | 5 SWOT analysis is very useful to plan for personal development as well.
