  • Mission and vision development.
  • Design and facilitation of activities to engage key stakeholders in the strategic plan process.
  • Survey creation, execution, and analysis.
  • Gap, SWOT, and SOAR analysis
  • Development of strategic, action, and implementation plans
  • Development of assessment plans, including key metrics and strategically aligned measures.
