Board management strategic planning isn’t for those who aren’t able to handle it. It requires a lot of contemplation and questions and the courage to question the system that is in place. It can be especially difficult when a board is accustomed to taking the initiative and then approving their ideas.
The first step in effective strategy planning is determining the strategy your board will take. Some boards may prefer to rely heavily on and act as supervisors of management, while other boards might take on a role of co-creative in which they work with the CEO on strategic decisions.
In either scenario, the important thing is to make sure that your board has an accurate and clear understanding of its role. This will ensure that the board is fully engaged and that its input is valued.
A strategic plan metric is an important aspect to track the progress of your business. This will allow you to assess if your strategies are effective and give you confidence that you’re in the right direction for success.
As part of your strategic planning process, it’s important to consider the risks that are associated with your company’s goals and to ask whether they’re worth taking. This can be challenging especially if you’re going against the norm or personal bias. The more you can discuss uncomfortable topics in a respectful and productive way that will increase your chances of success.
