WHAT IS STRATEGIC PLANNING?

Strategic Planning develops, revises, and monitors implementation of OLLI's long-range strategic plan, and develops and implements a fund-raising plan to assure adequate funding for those plans. The Immediate Past President shall serve as Chair of the Strategic Planning Committee and the Finance Chair shall be an ex officio member.

 

GOALS OF THE STRATEGIC PLANNING COMMITTEE:

  • Review the OLLI mission statement
  • Develop ideas for growth and improvement
  • Come up with strategies to achieve said growth and improvement

 

HOW WILL THE COMMITTEE ACHIEVE ITS GOALS?

  • Assess current program data, and seek additional data where needed
  • Set priorities, inclusive of short and long term goals
  • Create a timeline 
  • The committee will utilize collected information to develop a five-year plan, along with a financial projection.
  • Identify key performance indicators and plan to use them to track the progress against the goals set in place
  • communicate the strategic plan to the entire organization
  • Create visual aids for communication of information to our stakeholders
  • This will keep the entire membership invested in the organization and provide opportunities to contribute to the successes of the overall plan.
  • Assign specific tasks directly related to the strategic plan to staff members responsible for the achievement of the success
  • Assess staff member performance of tasks
  • Monitor the performance of the strategic plan, evaluate and assess the timeline monthly to stay on track.
