2. What is Policy?

2.4. Strategic Planning

Developing and setting a clear strategy for the organisation and then implementing it is vital to the success of an organisation. The organisation may have trouble pursuing and achieving its objectives if the purpose of the organisation is not clearly defined.  

A strategic plan provides a framework for policy development.

A strategic plan is a document mapping out the organisation’s aspirations and objectives and a plan on how these goals will be achieved. It addresses the long-term direction of the organisation by describing what it’s going to do and how.[1]
