Shelf-sitter or action guide? How would you characterize your strategic plan?

The questions – and components – abound. Join this lively webinar to learn best practices for creating a thriving strategic plan.

WEBINAR DETAILS
Your institution is unique, so your strategic plan should be unique as well. Too often, executives and directors will construct a strategic plan from old plans, use strategies that no longer work, or just brainstorm based on emotion or intuition. Today’s environment has become much faster-paced than it was five or 10 years ago (or even before the pandemic).
Whether your institution lacks a cohesive strategy, or just wants to review existing plan(s), this webinar will address questions including:
- What is your vision for the future of your institution?
- Do employees know the vision, and can they articulate it?
- Does the culture and institution brand (everything from electronic signatures on emails to the look of your lobby) reflect where you want to take your institution?
- Do you know the risks that are unique to your institution?
- Do you have the right people, and are they in the right places to fulfill the vision?
- Do you have the “right places,” which are the positions of the future?
In addition, the industry is impacted by many more forces, challenges, new competitors, and opportunities than ever before. These drivers highlight the need for every financial institution to design a living, breathing strategic plan to thrive and grow. Join this dynamic webinar to learn how.
