Facilitating a Culture of Evidence: A Blueprint for Strategic Planning

The process and product of strategic planning together create a blueprint for shared understanding of priorities and set the stage for evidence-informed decision-making. Yet strategic planning can be time-consuming and difficult, as leaders juggle competing interests within their campus community. In this webinar, we discuss how to engage stakeholders in the strategic planning process, and explore how their engagement can nurture a true sense of campus community, assist with prioritization on campus, and prepare for measuring future success. We also highlight common approaches for designing strategic planning frameworks, formulating strategic planning committees, constructing mission and vision statements, determining goals and tactics, and implementing meaningful assessments.
