Book excerpt: The purpose of this guidebook is to provide information and a suggested planning process to military leaders for developing and executing strategic plans. The planning process will address how to develop, maintain, and use strategic plans (what needs to be done) and related supporting business plans (how to get things done) within DoD organizations and a process for reviewing and updating those plans in the future. The role of strategic planning is to ensure that the long-term goals and objectives for which an organization is striving to accomplish are the best that can be envisioned today in order to achieve continued success in the future. The strategic planning process presented in this guidebook assumes constant turbulence and change; it anticipates there will be future changes in missions, technology, and customers; and scans for trends that may impact an organization. It assumes opportunities and threats external to the organization as well as strengths and weaknesses internally will continually surface. The guidebook is organized into three parts. Part one includes information and perspectives on strategic planning; addressing its evolution, benefits, and possible resistance leaders may face from within their organization when implementing a strategic planning process. The second part is an explanation of how to develop a strategic plan using a nine-step process. The third part discusses the development of supporting business plans and techniques for choosing key performance indicators to measure organizational success.

Download or read book The Strategic Planning and Deployment Excellence System SPADES written by Jack B. ReVelle and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-12-06 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Strategic Planning and Deployment Excellence System (SPADES) provides a path to long-term success in the environment of rapidly changing technology and business systems. It combines the best of Hoshin Kanri, Quality Function Deployment (QFD), and other proven management and leadership tools and techniques. This book presents a set of tools and techniques for developing and deploying a long-term plan for achieving sustained success. These concepts ensure graphically tracing the strategic planning process from the foundation of organizational principles to the enterprise vision and to the organization’s long-term goals. The Scientific Method is the foundation upon which the tools and techniques of SPADES are applied. The Scientific Method begins with an observation of a phenomenon which leads to development of a hypothesis to explain the phenomenon. The hypothesis is then tested and, based on the analysis of the results, then accepted or adjusted as necessary. The testing may then be repeated to verify conclusions. The Deming-Shewhart Cycle of plan-do-check-act (PDCA) is the application of the Scientific Method for control and continual improvement of processes and products. SPADES is the integrated evolution of the PDCA Cycle and QFD to answer the challenges of how to stay competitive, year after year, in a dynamic environment of rapidly changing customer requirements and technology.

Download or read book MAKING STRATEGIC PLANS WORK written by Chiku Malunga and published by Adonis & Abbey Publishers Ltd. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making Strategic Plans Work introduces an innovative and creative approach to understanding the theory and practice of strategic planning. Based on proverbs and folktales, the book provides detailed analyses of the stages of the strategic planning process - preparation, formulation, implementation, monitoring and evaluation. It also discusses the roles and responsibilities of the key players in the process - boards, management, donors, consultants and communities and how to build their capacity for more effectiveness. It equally provides at each stage templates for assessing the effectiveness of the strategic planning process as well as the key players. The book is unique in that it uses the wisdom contained in African proverbs and folktales to discuss the stages of the strategic planning process, and roles and responsibilities of players in the process. Being metaphors, proverbs and folktales often bring out more lucidly the meanings embodied in the normally arcane language of strategic planning. Proverbs and folktales also create strong mental pictures, which are often very effective in impressing ideas upon people's minds, communicating them at a deeper level, and motivating them to action. The book is based on research, tested use of the proverbs and folktales in strategic planning practice in different contexts in combination with the author's experience as a professional organization development (OD) consultant. It will be especially useful to students, teachers, executives, board members and all players in international development, community development, organizational development, international businesses and African Studies. Volunteers and expatriates working Africa and other developing regions will equally find the book useful as it provides insight into the culture and mode of thinking of the people they work with.
