Five Elements ofStrategic Planning

Organizational leaders who value a Christian worldview will value strategic planning as a tool to enable them to align with the will of God. Such leaders will hold annual planning meetings and periodic (e.g., quarterly) accountability meetings to help them stay on course. The leaders will also engage accountability partners from their oversight board or consultants to hold them accountable to their plan. Organizations with this level of commitment to alignment with God will deliver excellent value to those they are called to serve.
