A Strategic Plan is a long-term flexible plan that does not determine the Chapter's activities but rather outlines ways by which the Chapter could achieve its goals. The Plan also provides the way to change the course of action should the desired goals change. Specifically, this Committee's role is to develop a Five-Year Plan for the Chapter and to advise the Board on very practical ways as to how to achieve the Plan's goals. After the Plan acceptance, the Committee will meet periodically to evaluate the Board's progress and suggest any perceived mid-course corrections. |
