Planning
and Doing
At
CDR Fundraising Group, we understand the importance and
value of strategic planning because we use this process
to manage our own growth, development, and success. For
us, your strategic planning is more than a job or an academic
exercise; it is a chance for us to share with you a process
from which we have benefited in our own company.
Strategic
planning is like parenthood: Few people receive training in
how to parent, and many children grow into adults who are
very different from what their parents had “planned.”
Similarly, few managers are trained in strategic planning,
and we are not surprised that many plans don’t work
out as intended.
Some
moms and dads are Dr. Spock parents, while others prefer Dr.
Laura. Your strategic planning guru might be Drucker, Mintzberg,
or Senge. At CDR Fundraising Group, however, we do not use a standard
strategic planning cookbook. We believe every organization,
like every child, is unique and requires its own plan for
growth and development. So, we start with a set of principles,
a toolbox of techniques, and a general approach to the planning
process that has proven itself in a wide variety of circumstances.
And the final details and procedures are tailor fitted to
the individual circumstances and characteristics of your organization.
