Strategic Planning & Deployment Using The X Matrix W225Robert Mitchell
The document discusses strategic planning and execution using the X-Matrix planning process. It provides an overview of the key components of the planning process, including establishing a vision and mission, analyzing the current reality and desired future state, identifying underlying contradictions, and developing strategic directions. It then gives examples from MNASQ's strategic planning process, such as their new vision and mission statements, analysis of forces impacting the future of quality, and identification of MNASQ's underlying contradictions to address.
- Project appraisers tend to be overly optimistic in forecasts, overstating benefits and underestimating costs and timelines. 38% of respondents admitted to overstating benefits to obtain funding.
- Benefits forecasts are made to justify costs rather than manage realization. Emphasis is on identifying benefits for funding rather than managing achievement.
- Techniques like the Delphi method and stochastic predictions can help reduce bias by incorporating diverse expert opinions and accounting for uncertainty. Managing expectations through frameworks like best, worst, and realistic case scenarios also helps.
- Assessing risks from a benefits perspective and mapping their potential impacts on specific benefits and tolerances supports more realistic forecasting and management.
The document summarizes presentations from a software company called Decision Lens on how their software can help with prioritizing projects, people, and ideas.

Using risk information to enhance partner relationships
case study by Will Foulds, Redstone Risk Ltd
22 June 2017
The document outlines an agenda to determine service focus and assess organizational capability for a client base. In session one, products and services will be analyzed to select primary and secondary focuses. Session two will assess current and required capabilities, provide a gap analysis, and brainstorm actions to address clear weaknesses. Key aspects of the analysis include determining market share and growth of offerings, conducting a SWOT on products, and selecting services for focus. Assessing dimensions like strategy, talent, culture and future leaders will evaluate capability. Clear strengths, weaknesses, hidden strengths and non-issues will be identified from current and future analyses to focus next steps.
The document summarizes the results of a pre-training assessment given to 18 participants who will be attending a workshop on operational planning and monitoring & evaluation.
The assessment found that 17% of participants were new to the topic, 66% were familiar with the concepts but not experienced, and 17% had limited experience. None reported being experienced with the topic.
A self-assessment of skills found that 40% felt neutral about their skills in areas like operational frameworks, planning, and monitoring, while 60% agreed they had those skills. None strongly disagreed or disagreed with having those skills.
The Edison Electric Institute and electric power industry allies launched the "Power Partners" program to support President Bush's commitment to slowing and eventually reversing the growth of US greenhouse gas emissions.

Pascal's triangle is a mathematical concept originally developed by the Chinese that was later popularized by French mathematician Blaise Pascal. It arranges numbers in triangular form where each number is the sum of the two numbers directly above it. Pascal's triangle can be used for applications in algebra, probability, and geometry. It also relates to Catalan numbers, which express the number of ways a polygon can be divided into triangles without intersecting diagonals.

EPA denied a petition to regulate greenhouse gas emissions from motor vehicles for three reasons: 1) EPA lacks authority under the Clean Air Act to regulate CO2 emissions for climate change; 2) regulating vehicle fuel economy to reduce CO2 emissions is assigned to DOT by Congress; and 3) regulating GHG emissions now would be premature without more scientific study. The petition was filed in 1999 by environmental groups but EPA is now taking final action to deny it to avoid unnecessary litigation.

Cookies, Convening, and Coffee: Measuring the Networked NonprofitBeth Kanter
This document discusses how nonprofits can become more data-informed in their social media strategies and tactics. It recommends starting with small, measurable goals and using inexpensive tools to collect basic metrics. A seven-step process for social media measurement is presented: 1) define goals, 2) understand audiences, 3) determine investments, 4) set benchmarks, 5) identify key performance indicators, 6) select tools, and 7) analyze data and apply learnings. Case studies from organizations like MomsRising demonstrate how to connect strategies, audiences and investments to meaningful metrics that can guide improvements. The overall message is that nonprofits can start measuring impact with basic data and focus on insights over extensive data collection.

Shift Health co-hosted a Product Development Boot Camp with the Global HIV Vaccine Enterprise. The Boot Camp afforded workshop participants an opportunity to discuss best practices, to learn from the experience of other experts and to create an enduring resource and toolkit that will serve the HIV vaccine field and beyond.
Product development refers to the multifaceted, long-term, highly regulated process that brings promising new drugs, vaccines and medical devices to the populations who most need them. In fields such as HIV vaccine development, where the absence of commercial incentives can make it difficult for companies to lead this process on their own, inventors need to work in partnership with diverse stakeholders and funders to maximize the social and economic impact of their research.
Ryan Wiley, PhD, President at Shift Health, delivered an overview of product development partnerships, which exhibit three common elements:
Defined governance mechanisms that enable appropriate participation in decision-making
Disciplined approach to communication among partners and with stakeholders
IP policies that balance the needs of individual partners with the objectives of the partnership.
Consortium metrics discussion with IOM Drug ForumMark David Lim
Presentation made to the IOM Forum on Drug Discovery, Development, and Translation to explore the possibility of metrics that evaluate the performance of biomedical research consortia
This document discusses principles for applying an abundance approach to program and project management. It outlines four quadrants for improvement: collaborate, create, control, and compete. The collaborate quadrant focuses on developing talent and strong relationships through culture, collaboration, and trust. The create quadrant emphasizes articulating a motivating vision of the future through symbolic leadership and innovative ideas. The control quadrant aims to produce extraordinary results through goal clarity, planning, and accountability. Finally, the compete quadrant prioritizes aggressive actions, stakeholder agreements, and incentives to drive measurable progress.
This workshop discussed resource allocation challenges in healthcare. There are widespread perceptions that resources are insufficient to maintain current services or add new ones. Decision-makers need to determine what services to provide, to whom, how, and where to meet objectives like access and health gains. Typically, decisions are based on historical patterns, politics, needs assessments, and limited economic evaluations. An effective approach requires aligning resources with goals and community needs, defensible evidence-based decisions, stakeholder engagement, and accountability. It was proposed that frameworks like Program Budgeting and Marginal Analysis can integrate medicine, economics, ethics, and values to facilitate priority setting and resource allocation decisions.
