Four tips from the association for developing a strategic plan:
1. Create a strategy. Developing a plan that covers what needs to be accomplished to meet goals is the first step to achieve long-term success.
2. Delegate responsibilities. Once a plan is created, assigning responsibilities is essential to help the plan come to fruition.
3. Be flexible. Creating a strategic plan to be a living document ensures the ASC can adapt to any changes or roadblocks that come up.
4. Commit to meeting frequently. Making time to meet regularly helps keep staff accountable for their tasks and helps everyone get on the same page when executing a plan.
