SOCAN Leadership Circle: Strategic Planning for 2022

November 10, 2021 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm

Registration required

As many of you know, the November Leadership Circle meeting (Wed, Nov 10 from 6:30-8:30) each year is spent developing a Strategic Plan for the next year. Last year we redesigned SOCAN’s Organizational Graphic (the wheel) that now has a large array of projects (22) in 5 program areas. The website has now been updated to match this organizational structure. Additionally, the SOCAN Board has just completed a 5-year strategic planning process with the help of Solid Ground Consulting. As a result of these activities, it is appropriate to adjust our traditional format to one that helps us understand where we are and then discuss how we use our new Action Plan to go forward. (SOCAN Vision to Action))

It is with great excitement that we invite you to the 2022 Strategic Planning session. Our plan for this zoom meeting includes: a review of our achievements; an explanation of the Board identified Goals, Strategies, Outcomes, and Actions; and opportunities for you to help develop Actions for 2 of these Strategies. We hope that you will join us for this very important activity.

We plan to have 2 Breakout Sessions where you will join the Board members who have agreed to lead each of the Strategies that you select. To help this process go more smoothly, please take a few minutes to identify what 2 Strategies you want to work on during the meeting. The Breakout group (1 or 2) when each Goal/Strategy will be discussed has been identified below to allow each board member to participate in a strategy in each Breakout session.
