STRATEGIC PLANNING PPT DESCRIPTION
In a constantly evolving world, organizations need strategic planning to adapt and stay ahead of the competition. However, despite being a basic business practice, many organizations struggle to make it work, resulting in disappointing outcomes. Our research and experience show that most strategic planning processes are poorly executed and rarely impact day-to-day decisions. To be successful, a strategic planning process should provide a framework against which all decisions can be evaluated.
What is unique about this strategic planning model?
✅ Pre-Planning Readiness – Assesses organizational readiness and ensures necessary preparations for a successful planning process.

✅ Comprehensive & Value-Driven – Combines traditional and modern strategic tools to drive long-term value creation.
The Eight Steps of Strategic Planning are presented in a sequential manner to guide organizational leaders and key stakeholders in planning and creating the organization's future.
