Business and Operational Planning and ImplementationLast Year's Budget is not a Crystal Ball
Over the years and with our work in various organizations, it is clear that in many business settings, there is no operational plan. In many cases historical budgets determine what gets funding and progress is measured in how we used or managed the budget. Though organizations realize the shortcomings of this approach, they are unsure how to change it. Many fear that our rapidly changing and digitally connected marketplace has diminished the ability to predict behavior or anticipate expectations with any long term precision, making annual planning redundant. Unfortunately, without a plan or planned approach, there is no method of ensuring that the right things are being done for the right reasons and no manner of measuring our progress strategically or operationally. Chart the Course and Achieve Your Vision The annual operational plan is the bridge between “steering” the organization and “rowing” towards your preferred destination. It defines specific operational objectives for your vertical business units and advancement priorities for your horizontal teams that will enable you to achieve your vision over time. It will also set the direction for the implementation of a coherent and accurate Performance Management Plan. |
