Conference Presentations

Traditional strategic planning can lead to a static plan that does little to inspire implementation or true change. This session will detail a process that promotes buy-in and engagement while providing structured frameworks to support implementation and assessment. Our framework provides support for a campus community to 'live' its institutional strategic plan through the strategic planning cycle (SPC) at the unit level, informing the realization of institutional goals and outcomes. We'll provide our tools and approaches for you to access and review, as well as the rationale for developing support for your own campus communities to 'live' their strategic plan.

Learning Outcomes:

1. Outline the SPC framework from planning to implementation to assessment to your unit.
2. Detail a collaborative process to engage stakeholders while increasing buy-in to 'live' a strategic plan.
3. Support campus community members to develop a meaningful, actionable strategic plan for their unit.
4. Explain the SPC framework rationale for facilitating teams to develop a strategic plan as well as align, implement, assess, improve, and evaluate the impact of the plan.
