Helping organizations refine their purpose and set priorities so they can achieve their goals
Our team of experts can help you build a successful strategy that creates a desired pattern of decision making and allocation of resources across your organization.
At its most basic, our approach to strategic planning is to begin by developing a common understanding of the vision and goals of the organization, and then to develop a strategy and priorities to achieve the vision and goals. The outcome is an evidence-informed, data-backed and goal-driven strategic framework.
Customizable + scalable
Our strategic planning process includes a clear framework that describes the purpose, stakeholders and the ambition of the work. We create a plan that can be used as a communications tool to create a shared understanding of your mission and vision among all stakeholders.
We know that building a strong foundation for your organization means aligning plans, priorities, stakeholders and resources. Together, we’ll create a strategy that will lead to measurable success. The approach we use typically includes the following components – customizable/scalable to different organizations’ needs.
Opinion research
Leverage surveys and stakeholder perception audits, as well as focus groups and online communities when relevant, for data-backed decision-making
Staff + community engagement
Workshops with staff, stakeholders, and community members to develop SWOT and other assessment tools
Board/council/leadership engagement
Two-way engagement and information sharing with appropriate leadership groups throughout the process, and facilitation of strategic questioning, consensus building and priority setting to collect input on strategic choices

Iterative analysis and synthesis that is implementation/operations ready and tied to deliverables and key performance indicators
