All too often, strategic planning coordinators are frustrated by an inability to coordinate critical meetings such that all required individuals are able to attend. While strategic planning should be a high priority for all executives and senior managers, so are a great number of other tasks. To ensure the needed executives and managers are available, thereby making the most effective use of their time, it is important to schedule these critical meetings far in advance. By using strategic planning calendars, coordinators will have the prerequisite insight to schedule meetings far enough in advance to avoid conflict with other priority gatherings.
Strategic plans present the best estimate of what planners, executives, and board members believe will take place within the market environment under the most likely to occur circumstances. But what of the activity of strategic planning itself? Shouldn’t an organization also be prepared to deal with best and worst case outcomes? Or should market forces be allowed to conspire unopposed to create an outcome other than that predicted?
The cliche 'if everything is a priority, nothing is' couldn't describe a more damaging situation than when it occurs pervasively throughout an organization. All too often, organizations and their divisions, departments, and workgroups work from priority lists that have neither been reconciled nor aligned.
