Strategic Planning
Any organisation can only succeed if it has a clear idea of what it is trying
to do. This is the role of Strategic Planning and it addresses three main
questions - What?, How Many? and With What? This needs a firm grasp of many
business tools and concepts such as:
- Gap and SWOT analysis
- Demand and Resource forecasting (direct and indirect resources)
- The Relationship with the Budget
- The Relationship with the Quality System
- Strategic Benchmarking
- The Distinct Roles of Short, Medium and Long Term Business Plans
- How to Implement the Business Plan - the key role of the Action Plan
- Training of creators and users
John Caton Associates will quickly and economically produce and implement
the right strategic plan for your business.
