Description
Most organizations have the ambition of saving the world – or some part of it – within a near term framework. In our early enthusiasm, it is easy to forget that the world’s problems have evolved from an intractable set of forces and that our resources may be more limited than the situation demands. Strategic planning is a way of matching our resources with our ambitions to produce effective change.A highlight of the strategic planning process occurred when a group of board and membership and policy council members held a 2-day retreat in Baraboo, Wisconsin. Standing in front of the legendary Aldo Leopold “shack” are (left to right) Tom Enders, Orlando Romero, Ross Morgan, Mike Dombeck, Fred Clark, Robert Hrubes, Eric Holst, Henry Carey, Thomas Sisk and Martha Schumann.Following the Forest Guild’s reorganization last year, the board decided to undertake a strategic planning process to refine its understanding of key issues the organization wants to address, its approach and methods and, finally, the measures it will use to evaluate success. The board and staff have been assisted by the Guild’s Membership and Policy Council and by the Social Enterprise Strategies Group (SESG) represented by former USDA Forest Service Chief Michael Dombeck and Francis Pandolfi, former CFO of the Forest Service and CEO with the Times Mirror Organization. The work began in November 2003 and work on a business plan is still continuing.
