Strategic Planning for Elected Officials: Second Edition - Paperback

An organization's strategic plan is a vision for its community, a promise to realize that vision, and a road map with which to get there. Creating that plan is a process: leaders must agree on what the organization is and what they want it to be. Then they must organize their resources and efforts toward achieving that vision. The second edition of Strategic Planning for Elected Officials introduces readers to a basic framework for strategic planning, preparation for the planning process, strategies for discussion and community engagement, and principles for implementing the plan and for evaluating its success.
