I think leadership and diversity are missing and I would love to see those incorporated.
ReplyDeleteWhat I would like to see now is the next stage of the Strategic Plan - fleshing out all those statements above with specifics on how they can be implemented (and presumably in what time frame).
ReplyDeleteBob,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment.
The next step for the plan is to flesh out the actions items for acheiving the vision/mission statments. The committee, however, is seeking comments on what has all ready been completed.
Do you have any comments about the plan as it stands now? Do you think we are missing anything? Should we not focus on a specific area that has not been mention?
Any comment towards the questions mentioned above would be helpful.
Thanks again,
Winter
