Strategic Planning...Looks Like...
This is what it looks like from my perspective when people engage in strategic planning or visioning...dreams abound and there is no going back...
Strategic planning can be fun and engaging, sure it is work too,..but you get out of it what you put into it. Having fun along the way is an intentional strategy to help everyone participate and engage. You can do this, just send an e-mail and let's get started...take the first step.

Tools For Facilitation
What's in your toolkit? |
One strategy is to help the participants involved in the strategic planning sessions look for ways to strengthen the assets of the organization and then use those strengths and assets to create opportunities - there are so many great and fun methods of eliciting that information and once the ideas are on the table or the boards...the planning group has a place from which to launch and move forward. For more info on how to use this tool follow this link: Looking at Strengths and Opportunities
Word clouds are a great way of identifying key concepts, or strengths of an organization |
TIP: Looking for the strengths of an organization to be shared in a visual manner? Ask members of your organization to share words that describe how they perceive or feel about the organization and then put those words into a word cloud. Super easy and fun and the words with the most repetition are sized proportionately.

A few tools to help keep your meeting on-time |
Want to know how to run a meeting efficiently?
Do you want your meetings to be more productive?
Tired of the same people always hijacking the company meeting?
Interested in strategies for delegating in meetings?
I am writing a series of guides related to facilitation for those who volunteer or get volunteered to facilitate a meeting or group: Are you
- a volunteer board chair;
- small group leader;
- leading your organization's strategic planning?
Send in your questions or dilemmas and let's develop strategies for you to build facilitation capacity. Looking forward to getting your questions. Your can send them to me in a variety of ways: use the e-mail link on the left, post them in the comments section below or send them to me via LinkedIn or Twitter @KathyStutzman - you pick the medium and let's get your questions answered.
