10 W e s t e r n M a n a g e m e n t C o n s u l t a n t s TIMELINE Long-Term – Stable 10-20 Years 5 Years 1-3 Years 1 Year Quarterly UNCONSTRAINED CONSTRAINED The Hour Glass Approach to Strategic Planning 10

11 W e s t e r n M a n a g e m e n t C o n s u l t a n t s Vision  Example: “ Strong, vibrant communities where youth develop their paths to career success” 11 A vision describes a realistic, credible, attractive and inspiring future for the organization or the community. It paints a picture of the long-term future to which the community aspires; that is, the broad targets they would like to achieve.

12 W e s t e r n M a n a g e m e n t C o n s u l t a n t s Mission  Example: “Our mission is to increase the capacity of people to care for one another.” (United Way). “A Catholic community of learners…opening hearts, minds and doors.” 12 The mission defines the primary role the organization seeks to fill. A good mission statement emphasizes the distinctive, unique nature of the organization and is the cornerstone upon which the organization defines its purposes. It is usually written in one sentence.

13 W e s t e r n M a n a g e m e n t C o n s u l t a n t s Environmental Scan and SWOT  The environmental scan considers the natural and man-made factors impacting the strategy, including the economy, trends, strengths, competitive assessment, and ultimately the SWOT - strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. 13

15 W e s t e r n M a n a g e m e n t C o n s u l t a n t s 15  Key Results are statements of the specific outcomes that an organization wishes to achieve relative to a strategic priority. They represent what the organization wants to accomplish and are written in specific enough terms to be measureable. They are usually shorter term.  Example: Key Results By 2017 increase the number of industry placements by a minimum of 20% annually.

16 W e s t e r n M a n a g e m e n t C o n s u l t a n t s 16 STRATEGIES are the broad statements about how to deploy the organizations resources to achieve the desired outcomes. Key Results are the what; the Strategies are the how. Example: Identify and target potential new industry segments for engagement in Careers’ programs. Strategies

17 W e s t e r n M a n a g e m e n t C o n s u l t a n t s Action and Implementation Plans  What the organization would like to achieve in the next year. “What are we trying to do as part of achieving this outcome?” “What are the specific targets?”  They are shorter term targets that can be measured: “S”pecific “M”easurable “A”ttainable “R”ealistic “T”ime bounded 17
