Strategic Planning

Non profits require a clear understanding of their mission and how they will get there. The "how they will get there" is the strategic plan. Because non profits are consensus driven organizations, it is essential that the strategic plan be understood and shared by the key stakeholders of the organization: board, top management, and key donors.

At BBI we can work with your key stakeholders to help you develop a strategic plan which is shared by the people who will need to fund and carry it out. Starting with broad goals, we use an iterative process to help you distinguish between the desirable and the essential goals. One of our methods is benchmarking with peer institutions.

This strategic planning process helps your organization determine the resources - staff, facilities, expertise, and budget - which will be required to achieve your goals. Out of this process comes a strategic plan which includes lists of incremental objectives to be achieved in measurable timeframes. Because your key stakeholders have participated in the process, it assures buy-in when the time comes to do the hard work of implementing the plan.
