Strategic Planning EM 204 report SMC.pptx

It is very important to have a realistic time span for the strategic plan. By understanding the examples I have given, you can see that strategic planning is generally measured in years, tactical planning in months, and operational planning in days or weeks. This simple guideline is very valuable.

A realistic appraisal of your professional history is also important. In other words, it will be helpful if you have an honest and useful understanding of what has been important to your practice in the past and what will be impor- tant in the future. Of course, this also requires an honest appraisal of likely future circumstances. In other words, if you are currently 55 years old, it would not likely be a wise decision to have a long-term strategic goal for your prae- tice with a 30-year time frame.
