Strategic Planning Implementation and Evaluation
Week 6 Assignment - Strategic Planning Implementation and Evaluation
Introduction
Building on the Strategic Planning and Development assignment from Week 3, prepare a 10-slide Microsoft PowerPoint presentation, with narration, of your plan to present to the executive committee.
In this assignment, use the health care organization you selected in your Week 3 assignment. Determine why you are embarking on this strategic planning process (securing funding, establishing and focusing on organizational priorities, et cetera). In this presentation:
· Establish a clear vision for the strategic planning process.
· Paint a picture of where your organization will be going and of your desired outcomes.
· Ensure the picture is reality and not just what you or your executive committee may want to have happen.
· Make certain the strategic plan allows employees to know why the organization is changing.

Your 10-slide PowerPoint presentation should follow this format:
Slide 1: Cover Slide
