Learning to Lead Strategic Planning
Essential professional development for anyone with
business or not-for-profit management responsibilities!
We’ll train you.
During a three-hour online workshop, you’ll learn to lead a team through five critical processes for planning and implementing the short and longer-term future of your organization.
We’ll coach you.
Following your workshop, we’ll schedule a confidential weekly call to assist with preparation and follow-up for your planning processes. Each call ends with an outline of your next steps.
We’ll guide you.
For the orientation and each of five online meetings, we’ll be your role model, facilitating and visually recording the group discussions and decisions while you coordinate the planning process. In-person meeting guidance is also available.
Welcome to the Growth Management River Trip℠
Whether we train you, coach you or guide you, the diagram above is your planning model. It was developed by incorporating our experience guiding strategic planning for every sector of our economy, in more than 40 industries and a dozen countries.
Management teams from small entrepreneurial businesses, growing privately-held firms, corporate captains of industry and not-for-profits of every size have enjoyed the simplicity of the process. It’s easy to learn, easy to follow, and it flows naturally from planning into plan implementation.
Strategic planning for growing organizations is similar to a whitewater rafting trip. Preparation is essential. Paddlers learn or practice skills they don’t use every day. It takes a team effort to be successful. And it’s always exciting, usually with an element of the unexpected.
