Strategic & Business Planning
Strategic and business plans are often the first iteration of an institution’s trajectory. In strategic planning, we assess an existing organization’s operating and programing capacity and vision. In business planning we co-create a new organization’s launch and operating goals. In both, the result is a comprehensive and collaborative plan. We create programming, administrative, fundraising and financial strategies that serve as a multiyear road map for an organization’s direction.
