Strategic Planning vs. Strategic Plans • Process to establish priorities on what you will accomplish in the future • Forces you to make choices on what you will do and what you will not do • Pulls the entire organization together around a single game plan for execution • Broad outline on where resources will get allocated
• Strength’s – Those things that you do well, the high value or performance points • Strengths can be tangible: Loyal customers, efficient distribution channels, very high quality products, excellent financial condition • Strengths can be intangible: Good leadership, strategic insights, customer intelligence, solid reputation, high skilled workforce • Often considered “Core Competencies” – Best leverage points for growth without draining your resources
• Weaknesses – Those things that prevent you from doing what you really need to do • Since weaknesses are internal, they are within your control • Weaknesses include: Bad leadership, unskilled workforce, insufficient resources, poor product quality, slow distribution and delivery channels, outdated technologies, lack of planning, . . .
• Opportunities – Potential areas for growth and higher performance • External in nature – marketplace, unhappy customers with competitor’s, better economic conditions, more open trading policies, . . • Internal opportunities should be classified as Strength’s • Timing may be important for capitalizing on opportunities
• Threats – Challenges confronting the organization, external in nature • Threats can take a wide range – bad press coverage, shifts in consumer behavior, substitute products, new regulations, . . . • May be useful to classify or assign probabilities to threats • The more accurate you are in identifying threats, the better position you are for dealing with the “sudden ripples” of change

• Describes a future end-state – desired outcome that is supportive of the mission and vision. • Shapes the way ahead in actionable terms. • Best applied where there are clear choices about the future. • Puts strategic focus into the organization – specific ownership of the goal should be assigned to someone within the organization. • May not work well where things are changing fast – goals tend to be long-term for environments that have limited choices about the future.
