Strategic Planning

Don’t move on without it . . . Developing an effective strategic plan

Page 3: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

Why a Strategic Plan?

Breakthroughs require focus and choices

Page 4: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures

Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic plan, because often the process is far too complex. It’s really two simple concepts: •  Concept #1: Clearly and simply defining …

–  “What” success looks like for an organization, and then –  “How” the organization will deliver that success

•  Concept #2: Making real choices on resource allocation …

Page 5: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

Great Tool - OGSM

•  3-5 Year horizon – Objective

•  Words for Direction for organization

– Goals •  Numbers to determine if Objective has been achieved

•  1-3 Year horizon

– Strategies •  Words depicting a few critical choices to drive organization

toward Objective

– Measures •  Numbers to determine if Strategy has been achieved

Page 6: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

Great Tool - OGSM

•  For each Measure – Plans

–  Tactics •  Few critical action steps to achieve strategy

–  Targets •  Date by which Tactic is to be completed

–  Responsible person

Page 7: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

Great Tool – OGSM

Strategy ‘How to win’

Goals ‘Measure winning’

Objective ‘What is Winning’

Measures ‘Are strategies working?’

Plans Owners/Due Dates

Page 8: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

How do you do it?

Start with foundation:

­  Mission – Why you exist; What you do? ­  Values – What you believe in

Page 9: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

How do you do it?

Engage the right people:

­  Board Leaders

­  Key Stakeholders

­  Community Leaders

­  Specific Target Groups

Page 10: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

How do you do it?

Do pre-work – SWOT analysis:

­  Strengths

­  Weaknesses

­  Opportunities

­  Threats

Page 11: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

How do you do it?

­  Suggest a Focused Time – Half Day Retreat

­  Share Pre-work in advance

­  Establish Ground Rules

­  Review Relevant Data and SWOT Analysis

­  Discussion and Café Table Format Suggested

­  Seek “Weigh-In” from all participants at key points

Page 12: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

How do you do it?

Set the 3-5 Year Objective:

­  What success looks like for the organization

­  Breakthrough, Discontinuous

­  Transformative

­  Outward focused

Page 13: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

How do you do it?

Set Measurable Goals for 3-5 years:

­  Key metrics that will track progress vs. the Objective

­  Stretch yet achievable

­  Have a vehicle to obtain the metric

Page 14: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

How do you do it?

Select 3 - 5 Strategies

­  The choices that define where the organization will focus its effort

­  Each Strategy should have a “strategy owner”

Page 15: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

How do you do it?

Select Measures for each Strategy

­  The key metrics that will track progress of the strategy

­  Have a vehicle to obtain the metric

Page 16: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

How do you do it?

Create the Plans for the next year:

­  The most important projects that will make each Strategy successful

­  Each plan must have a single point owner and a completion date

Page 17: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

How do you do it?

Create the Capability:

­  Do a capacity check – do you have the capacity to deliver the plan?

­  If a capacity gap exits, create the capacity – or modify the plan

Page 18: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

How do you do it?

Engage everyone - key stakeholders:

­  Members of the organization

­  Donors

­  Community supporters

­  Non-profit grant applicants

Page 19: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

How do you do it?

Track progress – at least quarterly:

­  Determine whether the plan is “on track”

­  Address gaps - what’s needed to close gaps?

Page 20: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

How do you do it?

Annually Renew the Strategy or Create a New One

­  Annual Retreat – is strategy working?

­  Need new Strategic Plan or renewal of current?

­  On track to meet Goals?

­  Are Goals and Strategies still right?

­  What’s changed?

Page 21: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

How do you do it?

­  Start with foundation (Mission & Values) ­  Engage the right people ­  Do pre-work – SWOT analysis ­  Set the 3-5 year Objective ­  Set Measurable Goals – for 3-5 years ­  Select 3-5 Strategies ­  Select Measures for Each Strategy ­  Create the Plans for the next year ­  Create the Capability ­  Engage Everyone ­  Track progress – at least quarterly ­  Renew the Strategy

Example

Impact 100 Cincinnati

Page 23: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

Key Issue

Number of members grew But

Grant dollars were stuck at $215K + $10K

2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012

# Members 247 272 275 305 341 311 Grant $ $217K $222K $206K $218K $224K $215K

Typical OGSM Timetable

Prework l  Establish Mission l  Establish Values l  Input from key stakeholders; Conduct SWOT analysis; data collection

Session #1 l  Establish Ground Rules l  Define OGSM Process l  Define 3-5 Year Objective l  Define 3-5 Year Goals l  Identify Strategies l  Appoint Strategy Owners (where possible) l  Present Strategy Measure options/Decide where possible l  Begin Plan identification l  Conduct sufficiency check vs. defined Goals l  Define Plans for each Strategy w/ Owner & Date Homework: l  Each Strategy “Owner” refines Measures and Plans with small team l  Quantify Strategy metrics

Session #2 l  Finish Measures & Plans l  Gain Team Buy-In to Strategy l  Complete Plan Definition l  Conduct Resource check l  Build OGSM Scorecard l  Build Deployment/Communication plan l  Agree to quarterly review process and annual renewal

Page 35: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

Mandatory for this process to work . . .

l  Commitment and active participation from the organization leader(s) l  Willingness to make the hard calls l  Clearly define success and stay on a consistent path l  New priorities are managed through, not outside, the plan

l  Acceptance that strategic planning is not an “event” l  Strategic Plan is not just a “meeting and a binder” l  Formal review at least quarterly; annual renewal of the plan

Page 36: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

Why strategy work often fails

•  Lack of clarity on what success really looks like over a defined period of time

•  Failure to make clear strategic choices

•  Selecting too many project priorities - “do everything”

•  Not matching the plan to organization capability, reaching too far

•  Lack of clarity and accountability on execution and behaviors

•  Plan is too voluminous and/or complex

•  Absence of disciplined follow-up & measurement –  No clear metrics to objectively track progress on a regular basis –  Failure to renew the plan at least annually –  No on-going internal owner for the planning process

Page 37: Strategic Planning Workshop Sharon J. Mitchell - WCGN · Great Tool – OGSM Objectives, Goals, Strategies & Measures Organizations rarely follow through on a disciplined strategic

Strategic Planning

Challenges ­  Not “natural” for all learning styles

•  Know styles of participants; leverage strengths

­  Some have difficulty understanding capacity

­  Some have difficulty diverging; some converging

­  Some are big risk takers; some very conservative

­  Some experienced; some no experience

Strategic Planning

Use of Facilitator - Choices

­  Outside facilitator

­  Board member

­  Member

­  Someone experienced in Strategy facilitation
