Strategic Planning Process

The elements of the strategic planning process illustrated in Figure 6.1 include design, implementation, and evaluation. At each phase, senior HR professionals provide key input to ensure that the process moves forward and accomplishes the goals and objectives established.

FIGURE 6.1 Phases of the strategic planning process

The key to a successful implementation is communication throughout the organization. Stakeholders must understand their role and contribution to the plan to have “buy-in.” This is particularly important in overcoming internal resistance that exists in companies with long-term employees, long-standing practices, and traditions where change is imminent.

Remember, all strategy begins with the organization’s most core elements: its mission, vision, and values. Key to any other aspect of this chapter is the understanding that without a clear mission or vision it is impossible to develop a cohesive, effective strategy. Part of the function of human resources is to ensure that every employee’s behavior is consistent with the stated values of the organization and that their actions continually drive the organization toward the vision established by the executive leadership. Most dysfunction in an organization happens as a result of failing to align people to values, not understanding the mission, or having a murky vision that cannot be vividly seen by everyone.
