Strategic Planning

Strategic Planning / Change Management

Strategic Planning

Very simply put, strategic planning identifies where the organization wants to be at some point in the future and how it is going to get there. The "strategic" part of this planning process is the continual attention to current changes in the organization and its external environment, and how this affects the future of the organization. Skills in strategic planning are critical to the long-term success of your organization. Our strategic planning model determines the direction of your organization over the next three years while analyzing the best course of action to reach your goals.  The process works to conserve client resources of time and money while greatly enhancing the organizations effectiveness long-term.

5 Steps for Developing a Strategic Plan

  • Write a Mission Statement
  • Perform a Gap Analysis

Change Management

Change Management is the discipline that guides how we prepare, equip and support individuals to successfully adopt change in order to drive organizational success and outcomes.

While all changes are unique and all individuals are unique, decades of research shows there are actions we can take to influence people in their individual transitions. Change Management provides a structured approach for supporting the individuals in your organization to move from their own current states to their own future states.

Organizational Change Management involves first identifying the groups and people who will need to change as the result of the project, and in what ways they will need to change. Organizational change management then involves creating a customized plan for ensuring impacted board, staff and volunteers receive the awareness, leadership, coaching, and training they need in order to change successfully. Driving successful individual transitions should be the central focus of the activities in organizational change management.

Change Management will help your organization control change effectively. Instead of working to prevent change, we teach you how to manage it.  The Hodge Group will guide your organization through the process and monitor the impact of change to ensure desired outcomes.
