Strategic planning is one of the most important responsibilities of senior management as it sets the organizational vision, strategies, and resource deployment to achieve that vision.

The document summarizes lessons learned from interviews with 10 global communications professionals at large multinational companies. Five key lessons emerged: 1) Invest in communications with a focus on future strategic goals and measurable results; 2) Expect emerging markets to require more, not less, investment; 3) Globalize strategies but keep tactics local; 4) View "digital" as integrated rather than a separate category; 5) The scope of public relations is expanding and moving higher strategically within organizations. Global agencies are valued for expertise, global networks, and driving consistency while respecting local needs.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

3. 1. Introduction.
The scope of activities undertaken by the Department of Defense and the Defense Logistics
Agency on any given day is enormous, and communications professionals are challenged to
provide timely and accurate information about those activities to a wide range of audiences. To
meet this responsibility to educate and inform, we must remain agile and adaptable in a highly
dynamic communications environment.
The need to develop a broad public communications capability across DLA cannot be overstated.
This mission is identified as one of the top 25 transformation priorities for DOD. The
requirement to identify and aggressively pursue 21st century media capabilities applies not just
to public affairs, but to all of the DLA's missions.
The U.S. Armed Forces continue to deal with threats around the globe, concurrent with those
missions the nation confronts ongoing economic and financial difficulties. In light of those
circumstances, organizations which expect to prosper must clearly demonstrate to the Defense
Department, Congress and the American people that they perform with competence and fiscal
integrity.
This annual operating plan supports the long-range and closer term goals of the Agency’s 2010-
2017 Strategic Plan, as well as the initiatives and actions of the Director’s Guidance. It outlines
the steps DLA Strategic Communication (DP) will take during fiscal year (FY) 2012 to improve
and sustain the effectiveness and efficiencies of DLA’s communication program to audiences
both internal and external to the agency. It provides key strategies, initiatives and metrics, as
well as program monitoring and review goals.
DLA must seize every opportunity to explain its strategic direction, its support to warfighters,
stewardship excellence and commitment to growing a workforce capable of acting and reacting
with flexibility, agility and integrity. It is through strategic communications that DLA will
provide a narrative allowing the reader to “see” both the Agency’s past achievements and future
vision.
3
4. 2. Mission, Vision and Values.
Mission
Provide effective and efficient worldwide support to Warfighters and our other customers.
To best support the DLA mission, DLA Strategic Communications provides guidance to the
Director, J-staffs, D-staffs and Field Activities. The office develops and administers proactive
command information, media relations and public outreach policies and programs that
communicate DLA’s critical role as a combat support agency, value added to DOD, COCOMs,
the military services and warfighters, and the American people using internal and external
communication avenues.
Vision
Warfighter-focused, globally responsive, fiscally responsible supply chain leadership.
To ensure the DLA vision is heard and understood by the agency’s vast audience, DP will
provide second to none public affairs support: targeted, responsive, responsible and flexible.
Values
Our values are DLA’s foundation for all we do, our basic guiding principles:
Warfighter needs guide us.
Integrity defines us.
Diversity strengthens us.
Excellence inspires us.
Specific to helping DLA sustain itself as a highly respected, value driven organization DP will:
Always do our best for DLA, DoD and our Warfighters
Be careful stewards of Agency resources
Listen to what our stakeholders and customers say
Take action on criticism and recommendations
Always do what is right for DLA, the Armed Forces and DOD.

DLA is a 27,000 employee organization doing $43 billion yearly in military logistics sales and
services. The agency’s internal audience is roughly the size of an Army division; its external
military audience is over 1.4 million. Further outlying audiences encompass the Defense
industry and the American public as well as foreign nations. Because of the extent of DLA’s
business dealings and the span of its commodity lines, DLA touches the commerce and economy
segments of many of its external audiences. This gives those audiences a natural curiosity and
need to understand the agency, its business practices and needs. DLA Strategic Communication
is intrinsic to meeting DLA requirements in customer, stakeholder and external audience
interaction.
DLA Strategic Communication is a full spectrum, full support communication office organized
into five teams. Each team is responsible for specific functions and capabilities. DP provides
visual, audio and written communications for internal and public audiences, chooses the best
media to deliver information, responds to reporters, and provides advice to DLA decision
makers. The office manages the flow of news and information about DLA to employees,
customers, stakeholders, the media and the public. DP applies the practical principles of
communications to each field of approach – media and community relations, internal
information, plans and policy
The Outreach Plans and Analysis team provides requirement analysis, course of action
development, recommendation, decision, execution and measurement. As part of its
outreach function, the team maintains effective community and stakeholder relations as well
as overseeing the Agency’s new media program.
The Media Relations team, develops well thought out and responsive media operations. The
team adjusts quickly to both the scale of news media coverage and the Agency’s ability to
communicate effectively and within the parameters provided. The team works in concert
5
6. with the News and Internal Information team to gain synergy of effort and information across
all DLA audiences.
The News and Internal Information team provides DLA related news and information to
internal and external – non media - audiences. To build and maintain credibility, the team
ensures all products are timely, accurate and consistent across audiences. In addition to
operating DLA Today and DLA.mil, the team produces the Agency flagship magazine,
Loglines.
The Video Production team provides all facets of video production: scripting, videography,
editing and audio design. Projects range from small .30 second public service
announcements to large scale historical documentaries.
The Director’s Support team provides speaking and appearance support to the DLA Director.
The team prepares speeches, presentations, handles event logistics and serves as the point of
contact between DP and the Director’s staff for routine actions.
In addition to the enterprise-wide communication provided by DLA Strategic Communications,
each Primary Level Field Activity – and DLA Document Services – also maintains a public
affairs office to deal with regional and product line specific issues.
The work of DLA Strategic Communication contributes to morale, educates our employees,
stakeholders, customers and the public, as well as enhancing the reputation and credibility of the
Agency. The office directly affects the strategic position of DLA in the Defense Department and
with the Armed Services.

video capture, training – of both DP personnel and DP personnel providing
training to PLFAs and other organizations – and Director support.
Metric 1: Fully successful is increase of TDY budget based on new
programs and projects
Metric 2: Successful is retention of current budget.
o Obj. 3. – Training: As technology continues to change and strategic
communications theory and execution grows more complex, the need to train DP
personnel at a steady rate grows. Public affairs professionals must be at the
highest state of readiness to response with speed and flexibility to today’s media
and internal information environment. Additionally, the need to provide expert
and agile crisis communication continues to increase. To provide DLA with the
best in strategic communication DP intends to provide two or more training
opportunities to all personnel on an annual basis. In some specific circumstances,
7
8. i.e. introduction of new technology, that allotment can increase to four or more
opportunities.

opportunities for savings.
Metric 1: Fully successful is retention of current contract budget, with
potential to gain resources for UFR that occur as part emergent situations
or leadership requirements.
Metric 2: Successful is retention of current contract budget with strict
manage to budget regulation.
The above objectives and metrics directly support the FY 2012 Director’s Guidance focus

impetus for increased output and efficiency.
Metric 1: Fully successful is 15% or better increase across all categories.
This metric is dependent on related categories of budget, training, technology
acquisition, requirements of internal and stakeholder target audiences and
OPTEMPO of the DLA mission. It is also dependent on external factors
relating to media tempo, OSD decisions on budget efficiencies, and customer
requirements and interaction.
Metric 2: Successful is 5% increase across all categories. Again, this metric
is dependent on related categories of budget, training, technology acquisition,
requirements of internal and stakeholder target audiences and OPTEMPO of

12. 5. Strategic Goals and Objectives.
a. Internal Goals.
Create Understanding - in real terms and plain words. Increased understanding leads to
organizational flexibility, agility, optimal productivity and seamless scalability.
Make Discussion of DLA Goals and Objectives a Part of DLA Processes – Every
program and process should relate back DLA’s strategic goals, ensuring all DLA activities
support the strategic direction of the Agency and references to the strategy become part of
the DLA lexicon.
Motivate the Workforce – Awareness of strategic goals, focus areas and their importance
helps employees align personal work goals with those of DLA to increase and improve
performance.
Communication – Constant emphasis of DLA strategic goals at every opportunity,
highlighting achievements and progress, increases employee recognition of how their actions
contribute to the success of DLA.
b. External Goals.
Build Awareness – Of DLA’s strategic direction and the Agency’s priorities and objectives.
Increase Cooperative Relationships (Relationship Health) – To ensure stakeholder and
customer support of the effective, efficient execution of Agency priorities.
Build Advocacy – Create champions for DLA and its mission to assist in gaining
requirements and resources to help the Agency meet the needs of the Warfighter.
Show DLA as a Current and Future Competitive Force – Emphasize agility and
capabilities; showcase the Agency’s diverse, professional workforce, and DLA’s care and
consideration in adding value to each step of the end-to-end supply chain.
d. Objectives:
Implement a series of communications methods and products with the objectives of elevating
awareness, increasing understanding, gaining support and reducing resistance.
Empower DLA communications professionals by providing the messages, tools and
techniques needed to execute an efficient, cohesive communications campaign.
Exploit detailed audience, event, and delivery research to guarantee accurate targeting and
delivery of planned messages to key audiences.
Develop, deploy and exploit an Enterprise communications database for data gathering,
charting and analysis of DLA communications efforts, including senior leader presentations,
12
13. across the Agency. Use this database as the linchpin to devise and execute performance
metrics to measure and evaluate plan effectiveness.
Ensure coordination of the plan, both vertically and horizontally to increase acceptance,
active support, and dissemination.
The above objectives and metrics directly support the FY 2012 Director’s Guidance focus
areas of: Warfighter Support, Stewardship Excellence, and Workforce Development.
13
14. 6. Initiatives and Metrics.
a. News and Internal Information:
INITIATIVE 1 – Obtain necessary training and permissions for all team members to have ability
to post to both internal and public DLA websites. This initiative will reduce gaps in our ability to
update all DLA websites as needed in emergencies and unexpected situations, reduce restrictions
on current team members with site permissions taking leave concurrently, and allow the team
leader to better distribute rare weekend or after-hours posting requirements among team
members. This initiative, objectives and metrics directly support the FY 2012 Director’s
Guidance focus areas of: Warfighter Support, Stewardship Excellence, and Workforce
Development.
o Obj. 1 – Ensure all team members have received OPSEC 3500 and OPSEC 1500
training to meet DLA requirements for Web posting.
o Obj. 2 – Obtain DLA Web Domain accounts for all CI team members.
o Obj. 3 – Obtain necessary permissions from Accenture for DLA Today and
DLA.mil.
o Obj. 4 – provide on-the-job training to all team members on procedures and style.
Metric 1: Fully successful is 100% of team trained and provided access to
DLA Today and DLA.mil with concurrent increase in response time for
article or information identification and posting. Improvement expected to
occur within two months of full training and access by team. This metric
is independent of time accrued due to network failure or site configuration
discrepancies.
Metric 2: Successful is 70% trained with concurrent increase in response
time for article or information identification and posting. Improvements
expected to occur incrementally as additional personnel are trained. This
metric is independent of time accrued due to network failure or site
configuration discrepancies.
INITIATIVE 2 -- Develop public affairs writing stylebook on common usage for DLA Strategic
Communications professionals and PLFA use. This initiative raises the overall level of
communications excellence across the DLA enterprise and provides a guide expected to improve
often poorly executed public affairs writing by non-PAO-trained employees across the agency.
This initiative, objectives and metrics directly support the FY 2012 Director’s Guidance focus
areas of: Warfighter Support, Stewardship Excellence, and Workforce Development.
o Obj. 1 – Incorporate usage accepted by DOD for American Forces Press Service,
highlight local exceptions to AP Style and determine standard usage for DLA-
specific terms.
o Obj. 2 – Obtain full “buy-in” from headquarters and PLFA staff organizations.
Metric 1: Fully success is production and “buy-in” of DLA public affairs
writing stylebook with training of PLFA and headquarters staffs on logic
14
15. behind its production and use requirements at the rate of four
organizations per year. Improvement in writing of trained personnel
should occur within one month of training.
Metric 2: Successful is production and “buy-in” of DLA public affairs
writing stylebook with explanation to PLFAs and headquarters staffs of
the logic behind its creation and use requirements. Improvement in
writing expected to occur within six months of production.
INITIATVE 3 – Improve mobility and Web production of Loglines magazine. This initiative
makes content more readily available and attractive to mobile users and expands availability
of DLA Strategic Communications-produced content, resulting in a better overall
dissemination and understanding of DLA’s strategic messages on the agency’s value to
American warfighters and other customers. Increasing mobile and Web quality and
availability also allows reduction of printed copies, saving resources and costs. This
initiative, objectives and metrics directly support the FY 2012 Director’s Guidance focus
areas of: Warfighter Support, Stewardship Excellence, and Workforce Development.
o Obj. 1 – Develop graphically enhanced website for Loglines magazine, with live
links to stories and photos.
o Obj. 2 – Develop mobile/iPad applications for Loglines magazine.
Metric 1: Fully successful is production of enhanced Loglines website
and mobile applications with concurrent increase in online and mobile
readership and diversity of readership based on new availabilities and
improved production quality. Simultaneous decrease in print production
accompanies this metric.
Metric 2: Successful is production of enhanced Loglines website with
concurrent increase in online readership based on improved production
quality. Simultaneous decrease in print productions accompanies this
metric, but at a lower percentage than if fully successful. No appreciable
increase in readership diversity expected with this metric.
15
16. b. Media Relations:
INITIATIVE 1 – Increase positive media coverage of DLA, its mission, people, capabilities and
services. Increase dissemination of DLA’s compelling story as America's logistics combat
support agency. Targeted, strategic engagement of the media provides DLA the opportunity to
educate the American public about how the agency uses taxpayer resources as well as informing
warfighters about DLA support. This initiative, objectives and metrics directly support the FY
2012 Director’s Guidance focus areas of: Warfighter Support, Stewardship Excellence, and
Workforce Development.
o Obj. 1 – Create media opportunities: The media team will proactively engage
media at a minimum of four times per month by pitching news stories, interview
opportunities with DLA leadership and subject matter experts, disseminating
news releases about the agency and creating events for media coverage.
o Obj. 2 – Timely response to media queries: The media team will ensure reporters
are provided accurate information upon request within one working day of receipt
of the inquiry, if information is available within DLA-DP, or within one working
day following receipt of response from another DLA staff office, PLFA or
activity.
Metric 1: Obj. 1 is fully successful when media team successfully pitches
four media engagements monthly, consistently throughout the year.
Metric 2: Obj. 1 is successful when media team pitches four media
engagements monthly, with pick up of 50% of those opportunities over six
to eight months of the year.

25. 7. Review and Monitoring.
DLA Strategic Communications is responsible for monitoring the effectiveness and efficiency of
messages, message vehicles, venues, and audiences. Additionally DP ensures timelines of
deployment and execution schedules are met. DLA PLFAs and J/D-codes hold responsibilities as
coordinating offices for required monitoring.
Where available, DP uses already existing survey/opinion vehicles such as the DLA Culture
Climate Survey and the DLA Client Survey to gather communication performance metrics.
When such vehicles are unavailable or inappropriate due to time, topic, or other variable, then
performance metrics are gathered through survey using a random stratified sampling process and
a designated sample size of 300 or greater for internal audiences and 500 or greater for external
audiences, though this sample size may vary in accordance with specific audience target.
Distribution occurs twice during plan execution cycles: one mid-plan and one end-plan. This
process and timeline should yield lessons learned on understanding/ knowledge increase, vehicle
and venue effectiveness in such a way as to allow communications refinement and adjustment.
Surveys are appropriately coordinated with DLA staff offices.
Collateral feedback is monitored using existing formal and informal mechanisms such as e-mail,
Web or social media platform submissions, and remarks gathered during discussions and
meetings.
