Strategic Issues
After the needs assessment has been completed, the next element of the strategic plan involves developing the strategic issues. Key tasks associated with the strategic issues include conducting a gap analysis, performing an environmental scan, and developing stakeholder surveys. The actions are performed so that you can conduct a SWOT analysis. SWOT stands for STRENGTHS, WEAKNESSES, OPPORUNITIES, and THREATS. A SWOT analysis is used to help an agency, organization, or community better understand the business and environment in which it operates. The goal of developing strategic issues is to list or map out all of the strengths and weaknesses, and then to do the same for all of the opportunities and threats. This helps the organization to identify a strategy for planning. Opportunities that match the strengths are things that should be pursued. Threats that particularly align with weaknesses should be especially avoided when developing a strategic plan.
For this Assignment, you complete a SWOT analysis for Natasha House, Inc.
To prepare:

The environmental factors may include: political, economic, demographic, regulatory, philanthropic, donor trends, and other organizations providing similar services.
The Assignment (4–6 pages):
Conduct a SWOT analysis. This analysis focuses on assessing the present state or condition of Natasha House, Inc.and determining where the organization would like to be.

This gap could provide direction for the major focus of the strategic plan.
Describe plans for conducting an environmental scan. The environmental scan is a process in which stakeholders gather and interpret relevant data on an agency, organization, or community to identify external opportunities and threats.
Identify and describe internal conditions that might impact the implementation of the strategic plan.
Address how you would minimize the impact of those conditions.
Identify and describe external conditions or competitors that might impact the implementation of the strategic plan.

Whole systems change across a neighbourhood
How can we collaborate with people to help them build their resilience? Get under the skin of the culture and the lives people live. Identify people’s feelings and experiences of community and understand what people think is shaped by different values and by the environment and infrastructure around them. The future of collaboration could bring many opportunities but people find it more difficult to live and act together than before. How can we help people…and communities build their resilience? Understand people’s different situations and capabilities to develop pathways that help them build resilient relationships. Help people experience and practice change together. Help people grow everyday practices into sustainable projects. Turn people’s everyday motivations into design principles. Support infrastructure that connects different cultures of collaboration. Build relationships with people designing in collaboration for the future…now.

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.

7. Spirit of the Process Superintendent James Feil, who will ultimately be responsible for making decisions and recommendations to the Board regarding the Long Term Master Plan, emphasized that the process would include ample opportunity for public input. “ Given the impact of the project, we foresee a very public process and are committed to incorporating the input of the community. The Steering Committee membership is designed to represent a cross section of the community. The group includes representation from all areas and all age groups within the region. It reflects a group with vast expertise and experience. We are very eager to begin to draw upon their energy and enthusiasm for this process.” Spirit of the Process
8. Long Range Master Plan Steering Committee Meeting August 28, 2006 Introductions Headlee Amendment Announcement – (See info at end of these presentation notes) Spirit of the Process Why do this? What is expected of the Steering Committee and its members? How will the process work?
9. Why do this? Beginning with the “why” is essential. If we don’t understand why we are doing the work we will certainly fail. The compelling “why” will keep us in focus.
11. Traverse City is interconnected not only to the region, state and country but also the world. Events that happen elsewhere, impact Traverse City. Traverse City is a part of an ever changing and dynamic system. Traverse City’s connection to the World
13. Explosion of Information Information is compounding at an unbelievable rate. Managing the information and the implications it brings is a challenge in today’s world.
15. Accelerating Pace of Change Today we have more technology in our cell phones than NASA had when they landed the first person on the Moon. Technology will continue to improve and bring changes to our lives.
17. As stated we are connected to the world, and through technology, to each other at a rate never before seen in our society. But the quality of those connections can be debated. In our fast paced society many people feel more isolated than recent generations. Lots of connections, but of what quality?
19. Abundance and Scarcity In our fast changing world many people view things in terms of scarcity rather than abundance. This perception doesn’t allow us to see all the possibilities that exist.
21. China – resources of 4 Earths to support growth Even though we have abundant resources our planet cannot support the reckless use of these resources. Presently we have a few countries using resources at a rate that will eventually put pressure on our entire planet. We must be intentional in conserving our environment.
23. “ Red-Blue” divide overstates differences As people feel isolated they tend to believe that our country is very polarized. For example they view our states as either being red or blue. The reality is that our states are shades of purple. We share common beliefs on a variety of issues but our perceptions get in the way of this discovery.
25. Putting aside differences for a common good We can only build on what it is that we share and not what divides. When opportunity is there we can come together and work for the common good. The problem is that most of these opportunities don’t happen unless there is a crisis.
26. Community Dialogue The Steering Committee discussed three questions in small groups of four to six people each. The following slides record some of the group dialogue around the following three questions. Why are we going through this process? Beyond logic, why do we go through this process? Given what is happening in the world, how does this impact the classrooms of Traverse City?
28. Question 1 Why are we going through this process? “ If it is to be it is up to me.” It is important to prevent us from dividing our community. Build our level of trust Learn the deeper issues that TCAPS faces Community involvement creates investment Broaden access to information for making decisions Be open minded and believe in the community process
29. Question 1 Why are we going through this process? Democracy allows informed people to make better decisions. To better meet the needs of those that own the schools Keep retention of students Can’t separate the educational system from the community system Bring our narrow opinions together Glean more diversified opinions
30. Question 1 Why are we going through this process? Our community has a responsibility to assist in these decisions. Determine what guides the school system and drives the decisions Invest in our kids now for the future.
31. Question 2 Beyond logic, why do we go through this process? Why the question? Do I trust the questionnaire? Try to make an excellent school system even better To get outside the box To smooth the political process for decision makers It’s about our kids and our future
32. Question 2 Beyond logic, why do we go through this process? The district must meet every niche desire of every parent. Preservation of community and the community needs its children Pushes us to look ahead Trying to meet the needs of kids that are different today
33. Question 2 Beyond logic, why do we go through this process? CYA theory. Each individual family and parent will do what is best for their child. Sharing the experience of change makes it more likely that change will happen Feeling of responsibility to the process Build community trust with the school
34. Question 2 Beyond logic, why do we go through this process? Get as creative as possible within the constraints of the budget problems Hold the administration accountable for the decisions made Being well informed can help understanding
35. Question 3 Given what is happening in the world, how does that impact the classrooms of Traverse City? We need to get beyond only teaching them to live in their society, but to live in the larger world society. Schools have to be aware of the world and teach our kids to be competitive in the world’s market. People will react against centralization and leveling and seek alternatives such as Montessori.
36. Question 3 Given what is happening in the world, how does that impact the classrooms of Traverse City? Higher expectations. There need to be new and exciting ways to interest them. Teach kids to be critical thinkers and to ask the right questions. Broader views will be taken back into the classroom.
37. Question 3 Given what is happening in the world, how does that impact the classrooms of Traverse City? Our children need to broaden their horizons. Explosion makes career jobs ever changing. Are we preparing them to adapt and change?
38. Question 3 Given what is happening in the world, how does that impact the classrooms of Traverse City? Must have relevance More important to teach students how to learn – not the information to learn We tend to look back (personal education experience) not forward.
39. Question 3 Given what is happening in the world, how does that impact the classrooms of Traverse City? There is less diversity in our community than in the world. How will teachers be able to keep up? A high school education will not be enough. We need to invest in education not take money from it. Information is overwhelming. How do we filter?
40. Long Range Master Plan Steering Committee Meeting August 28, 2006 Introductions Headlee Amendment Announcement Spirit of the Process Why do this? What is expected of the Steering Committee and its members? How will the process work?
42. Product and Process Process versus product is a natural tension. We need both to achieve success. It is not an “either/or” but an “and”. Product helps keep people engaged as they see progress, and the process helps sustain the effort with a systemic method.

48. Expectations for the Steering Committee and its Members Thoroughly study the different issues confronting TCAPS at this time. All of the issues mentioned in the previous slides will require us to become better educated about school district matters. Only through our own growth and progress will we be able to identify the best solutions to the issues confronting us. We're asking the committee to think deeply and become knowledgeable about these issues.
49. Develop an understanding of the variables and help the general public to also understand. Expectations for the Steering Committee and its Members Besides becoming better educated ourselves we're asking you to help educate others. As representatives of various school and community groups, we're expecting you to communicate with those looking to you for leadership. Our recommendations will be stronger if we have a better informed school community.
50. Create viable options to address the issues confronting the system. Expectations for the Steering Committee and its Members As we study the issues before us, we will need to begin to develop some viable options to address them. Creativity will serve us well.
51. Gather public input on the possible options. Expectations for the Steering Committee and its Members We'll want to gather public input on our proposed options. This will be accomplished through public forums and focus groups as well as questions posed on the district’s web site.
52. Invite 5 people to the Community Forums Expectations for the Steering Committee and its Members
53. Invite 5 people to the Community Forums Expectations for the Steering Committee and its Members This is to remind you of the importance of the public forums. We want broad based community input on our plans. This will occur in direct proportion to the interest we can generate.
54. Make recommendations to the Superintendent within 6 to 9 months for improving our schools. Expectations for the Steering Committee and its Members Ultimately, we are responsible for putting together the facility and program recommendations upon which we’d expect the Board of Education to take action. These recommendations need to occur in a timely fashion.
