Strategic Risk - How to Eat an Elephant

For Credit Unions

December 3rd, 10:30am - 45 Minutes

Many people feel put off by the perceived ‘intangible’ nature of strategic planning. Phrases such as ‘blue sky thinking’ frighten many people into not wanting to even start the process. But like eating an elephant (not that we would of course!), strategic planning can be completed ‘one bite at a time’. This webinar will look at the various elements which when combined, form a logical, comprehensive plan to manage the risks associated with strategic planning, or the lack thereof.

This Webinar will include:

  • Developing a body of evidence around strategic planning.
  • Documenting the strategic planning review process, who should be involved and how to encourage contributions.
  • Key elements of a CU strategic plan e.g. business model analysis, environmental analysis, projections etc.
  • SWOT & PESTLE Analysis
  • Documenting Goals (Specific Measurable Achievable Relevant Timebound) & Strategies
  • Monitoring performance of strategic KPIs
