Strategic Plans Help You Fulfill Your Mission and Values

A positive mission statement that encompasses a community’s principles is the hallmark of a thriving school district, local government or non-profit organization. But a mission statement is only as good as an organization’s commitment to realizing the values therein.

And while everyone involved may have the best intentions in fulfilling a mission statement, the truth is that a mission statement may outlive the very people who implemented it in the first place. When new leadership comes on board, or an organization gets stale in realizing its promises to their respective communities, they need a plan to get them on track to accomplishing the very tenets they are guided by.

A mission statement is the defining purpose for any organization, whether it’s a small school in rural Ohio, a county board of developmental disabilities, an institution of higher education in a big city or a municipality looking to market itself as a destination city, the mission statement is vital in establishing their identity and objectives.

So, how do organizations reinforce their direction?

A strategic plan provides the perfect opportunity to get any organization, business or institution back on track. With a comprehensive strategic plan in place, an organization has renewed energy to realize its promises to its community. There is also refreshed confidence from the community that the organization can accomplish its goals and is invested in the community’s success.

Your strategic plan will bolster your mission statement and define your values, all while creating opportunities for your stakeholders, employees, leadership and community to provide input and perspective, thus creating ownership for all involved.

An organization is only as strong as its team, and a strategic plan is a surefire way to ensure the team is invested in an organization’s current and future success.
