Strategic Planning

Planning That Inspires Action

Strategic plans should motivate, engage, and inspire. At Incite, we look to help our clients craft strategic plans that provide clear direction, strategy, action and execution. While strategic plans should be ambitious, they also need to be realistic. This means making tough decisions about what objectives will be pursued and what will not.

Our proven strategic planning process leverages input from decision makers within the organization as well as interviews and discussions with key stakeholders. Grounding the strategic plan in research and engaging key stakeholders in the planning process is key to developing a strategic plan that pushes the envelope of what is achievable without becoming overwhelming.

At Incite, we support organizations by providing the right set of planning tools and best practice process to ensure boards, staff and stakeholders are authentically and meaningfully engaged, ensuring they buy in enthusiastically and help the strategies and plans succeed when it comes time for implementation.

Incite can partner with your organization on:
