HOW TO CONDUCT STRATEGIC PLANNING - THE RIGHT WAY

-

Many companies go through strategic planning sessions without a clue or a clear idea how this should be conducted -- resulting to wasteful time, effort, resources and poor planning output. Strategic planning is the process that enables a company to define its strategy and allows it to articulate the courses of action it will take to effectivel­y and efficientl­y pursue its vision. The best plans happen when you have a systematic planning process that is done the right way. Jumpstart your planning sessions correctly with the beginning of the planning season this mid-year in preparatio­n for next year especially with the Philippine­s' full economic integratio­n to the ASEAN economy. Where we once looked at over 100 million Filipinos as amarket, we should now do our strategic plan based on 700-plus million consumers.
