What is a driver diagram?
• A way to visualize a problem or issue, and break it down into its component parts
• Is an effective tool for breaking down a broad aim (outcome statement) graphically, into increasing levels of detailed actions that could be done to achieve the stated aim

Driver diagrams in strategic planning
• Driver diagrams were done for the 5 strategic directions to summarize the aims/objectives/activities and measures for each one
• Foundational strategies have their aims/outcomes/measures and actions summarized in a table format

Why use driver diagrams?
1. Program/Department Planning Tool:
• Standard planning tool to share with programs as they start their planning process
• Keeps thinking linked to the overall aims: helps staff to focus on what is important and how they can contribute to the strategic aims and objectives
2. Standard Communication Tool:
• Helps to visualize the thought process behind each strategic direction

What are the component parts of a driver diagram?
• Aim: what is the outcome?
• Objectives: Defines what must be accomplished with clear timeframe and measures
(“SMART” – Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, Timed)
• Primary Driver: components that contribute directly to the aim (e.g. process, structures)
• Secondary Driver: secondary processes or other factors that can affect the primary
driver (components or activities)
• Activities: tasks that describe the work performed
• Relationship Arrows: show the connection between the primary and secondary drivers
• Measures: How will we know we are making a difference?
