Strategic planning is not a checkbox item, it's not a poster on a wall, it's not something developed by a few. In today's rapidly changing world, we believe that strategic planning should be an ongoing process that is inclusive of the diverse voices of your community and is focused on continuous improvement.
With our decades of experience in education, we understand the many audiences you serve. Our approach to strategic planning is engaging, adaptive and tailored to your organization's needs. No "cookie cutter" processes here. We partner with you and your community to develop an understandable and accessible plan that is rooted in your current reality while also being aspirational about what your future can be.
With strategic planning facilitation from CESO you receive:
Strategic Framework: a three-to-five-year framework that establishes an overall direction based on your values, mission, and vision and identifies priority areas to focus your work to help your organization evolve and respond to internal and external pressures.
Action Plan: a plan that advances the Strategic Plan focus areas through prioritized specific actions that are measurable, time-bound and actionable.
