Strategic Planning

The mission should flow into a strategic plan for the next five years in order to achieve that mission. Strategy empowers an organization to focus on their core mission and avoid potential distractions. This discipline also addresses the timing for expansion and adoption of incremental mission-related activities.Persistent attention to agreed-upon directions is the key to both innovation and refinement of practice.

Strategic planning covers a myriad of topics such as products and services, customer mix, geography, staff, and fundraising. While many strategic plans are generated for long-term use, Cathedral Consulting Group also emphasizes the importance of short-term planning as well.

A coherent strategic plan provides non-profits with structured mission alignment, organizational development, and to formulate logical next steps for progress of the non-profit. Strategic plans also instill qualitative and quantitative goals and objectives over an extended period of five-years. The use of short-term, yearly plans, assist in fulfillment of those goals and objectives established in the long-term strategic plan.
