We would like to thank all who tuned in to our Strategic Planning for Nonprofits webinar. We hope it was helpful and thought provoking as we look forward into 2019.
The New Year is a perfect time to reassess your organisation’s strategic plan; what’s your mission, what do you want to achieve, and how are you going to prioritise the areas deemed most important to the health and success of your nonprofit organisation, philanthropic foundation or social enterprise?
These are all crucial discussions for your leadership team. But defining a strategic plan is more than that. It’s also a unique opportunity for cultural transformation. By including everyone; your board, staff and other stakeholders in the planning process, you will be fostering a more collaborative and inclusive culture – and you could also be uncovering some creative and insightful ideas you may not have thought of before.
We were joined two of the world’s leading thinkers on the topic – Denise McNerney, President of iBossWell in the US/ President-elect for the global Association for Strategic Planning and Lewis Atkinson, systems thinker and architect of strategic and social change at Haines Centre Australia – for this fascinating webinar.
What we learnt:
- why strategic planning is essential to your organisation’s success;
- key steps to devise an effective strategic plan;
- what culture helps you make decisions; and
- tools to engage all your stakeholders in the planning process.
