Strategic Planning

"By believing passionately in something that still does not exist, we create it. The nonexistent is whatever we have not sufficiently desired."

-Franz Kafka

Strategic planning is important for expressing and directing organizational priorities. RootSpark uses a variety of methods to develop a dynamic strategic plan through the full inclusion of staff board, donors, and partners.

While each strategic planning process is tailored to the needs of the organization, a typical process may include:

Intake meeting with the organization leader that includes initial assessment of needs
Development of the strategic planning process and timeline
Development of stakeholder survey, if needed
Organizational readiness assessment via interviews with staff, board, and stakeholders
Development of strategic planning retreat model
Strategic planning retreat(s)
Development of draft strategic plan
Review of plan with organization leadership
8 month follow-up mini-session with staff and board
