United Way KFL&A Leadership Development Services Workshop

From Strategy to Action: Implementing Your Strategic Plan

Strategic choices have a powerful impact on whether or not your agency will thrive in the future. But to develop a plan with impact, you must make pivotal choices that are well-informed, provide clear direction, and align your efforts in support of your organization’s vision, mission, values and goals.

Then you come to the next step — taking action. The best laid plans deliver the most value only when they are implemented effectively. There are key factors to consider.

Building on last year’s session on strategy development, participants in this session will:

• Learn about best-practice approaches and options for strategy development.
• Learn how to translate your strategic plan into effective action and outcomes.

Best practices will be peppered with practical tips, examples, and tools to help you execute your own strategic plans.
