Strategic Planning
Strategic planning is a crucial activity in the success of many organizations, enabling them to focus on a common set of significant issues and yielding a powerful and shared sense of the future. NEO-RLS offers two Strategic Planning Tracks to fit your situation and can work with you to customize the process further as needed. We will help you get the process started, keep it on track by guiding your Board, community stakeholders and staff in defining long-term goals and objectives and by providing a framework for the final report and subsequent action.

"Working with the NEO-RLS team on the Ursuline College Ralph M. Besse Library strategic plan was a wonderful experience. The team created a safe environment for the library staff to share open and honest thoughts that lead to a plan that will help the library grow in the years to come." --
