How can we make sure we adhere to our Strategic Plan?

There are several specific actions you can take to make sure your plan isn’t relegated to a shelf in a matter of weeks or months. Having clear and quantifiable goals that become the basis for periodic reports on programming, fundraising, finances, and governance will help you “live into” your Strategic Plan. Charging one senior staff member or standing committee of the board with an annual comprehensive review of the Plan is another good idea. Integrating your Strategic Plan into your orientation process for new staff and board members also helps institutionalize the process.
