The document discusses initiating a strategic planning process and provides details on five strategic planning models: 1. The basic model involves identifying the organization's purpose, goals, strategies, and action plans to implement strategies. 2. The issue-based model includes assessing strengths/weaknesses and opportunities/threats to identify priorities and design strategies to address issues. 3. The alignment model ensures alignment between the organization's mission, programs, resources, and support needed. 4. Scenario planning imagines potential external changes and discusses organizational scenarios and strategies in response. 5. Organic planning views strategic planning as a natural, unfolding process through continual dialogue around shared values.
