Strategic Planning

Finding a road map to deliver better services

Where do we want to go, how are we going to get there and how do you know you've arrived! A strategic roadmap designed for an organisation, program area or specialised service, will help you answer these questions and make a positive impact for the community.

We have been helping executives, boards and agencies identify their vison, problems, solutions, targets, steps and milestones for over 25 years. Our strategic and business planning approach can be tailored with our other strategic services to meet your needs.

 

Having a well-developed strategy which makes sense to the Board and staff, has been significant in supporting me as the CEO to drive a change which has been much needed.

Pathfinder: Insightful, innovative, effective.

Pathfinder is a Strategic Planning program designed to address both the issues raising from the current health crisis and the restrictions imposed by it.

The program is delivered using both face to face and remote working engagement over three steps:

Step 1

Discovery & Definition: environmental analysis and stakeholder analysis identifies and unpacks local and national environmental factors and identifies the current position and requirements of your stakeholders.

Step 2

Provision & gap analysis
unpacks current operational capability & capacity comparing this to both the current needs, competitive forces, and supply and demand factors within your market.

Step 3

Your strategic plan
From initial draft to board presentation this will be concise, informed, objective, measurable and fully achievable.
Let's get you to where you need to be.

 

The Pathfinder Strategic Planning program is available at two different levels of engagement & investment:

Tier 1

Designed to provide the required core discovery and insight to inform your Strategic Plan. This is designed to offer a high quality of insight and solution delivery to assist organisations with limited budgets to plan without fear of compromise.

 

Tier 2

Designed as a complementary option enabling a deeper dive into your issues, opportunities, potential stakeholders and solutions. This allows us to provide greater detail leading to a more informed and robust operational scaffold within the strategy; the operational tactics, programs and evaluation frameworks.

 

The Pathfinder Strategic Planning program incorporates all of our experience and the combined requirements of all of our past clients to deliver a solution that is:

 

Client-centred

We pride ourselves on our proven ability to help organisations who work for the benefit of the community and have a client-centred approach. Whether you have a mainstream mandate or specialised target groups, we understand the importance how you work and the need to embed values of respect, inclusiveness, and cultural security in strategic service delivery, policy and program development.

Results focused

We adopt a results-based model which identifies the outcomes and impact of your programs and services. The steps and strategies to achieve short to long term results are identified providing a road map that can demonstrate success and learning on the journey. Clear measurement and evaluation frameworks provide the language of achievement and success to stakeholders supporting the sustainability and growth of your work.

Technologically supported

Technology can aid the engagement of diverse stakeholders in strategy and service performance. We have been exponents of remote working technologies such as today's Microsoft Office 365, Skype, FaceTime, WebEx, Zoom, online surveys, project management and resource sharing platforms since our formation, as can be seen here. Technology can connect your strategy and communication needs to convey success of your investment and efforts.
