- Strategic Planning Levels
- Organization-Wide Strategic Planning
You need an organization-wide, 3, 5, or 10-year strategic plan, defining the organization’s vision, mission, core values, and key success factors, along with the core strategies for achieving them. (This is organizational Level #5 of the Seven Levels of Living Systems.)
- Business Unit Strategic Planning (often called 3-Year Business Plans)
You need 3-year business plans for each business unit, major program area, and major support department (such as HR) within the organization. (This is organizational Level #4 of the Seven Levels of Living Systems.)
- Annual Planning Levels
- Annual Plans for all Departments/Functional Units (including HR)
Annual operating plans over the next 12 months are needed (and budgets too) for all parts of the entire organization. (This is also organizational Level #4 of the Seven Levels of Living Systems.)
- Individual Plans, Goals, and Objectives
Individual plans are needed to show how each employee intends to accomplish the goals they must meet in order to carry out the organization- wide strategic plan. You also need to revise your performance appraisals, basing them on core strategies (results) and core values (behaviors). (This is organizational Level #3 of the Seven Levels of Living Systems.)
