Strategic planning

Where is your land trust going in the future?

Setting a strategic plan can energize, unify and inspire board, staff and volunteers because it engages everyone in a common understanding of where they want to go and what time, expertise and funding it will take to get there.

When done right, strategic planning enables an organization to identify its strengths, set priorities, chart a course and plan of action for the future. Effective strategic planning acknowledges the threats to successful execution and addresses those head on, encourages innovation and creativity, engages and galvanizes board and staff, identifies and nurtures critical collaborations, and creates meaningful metrics for measuring success.
