Rethinking Strategic Planning: Three Inspiring Alternatives to an Outdated Process

EAB and AASA, The School Superintendents Association, hosted a webinar to define the problems with traditional strategic planning and share how district leaders can alter the process to deliver inspiring results.  

About the Webinar 
Over the past two years, dozens of superintendents have asked the same question: Is there a better way to “do” strategic planning? EAB’s analysis of 100+ district plans highlights why: Despite extensive investments of time and energy, the vast majority of plans settle on the same set of priorities and set unrealistic expectations for progress. As a result, over 90% of superintendents say prioritization is a constant challenge for their team.

In response, EAB researchers set out to define the problems with traditional strategic planning and how districts can alter the process to deliver inspiring results. In this session, we introduce the findings of that research. Superintendents and district leaders should watch on-demand to learn:

  • Why traditional planning delivers consistent problems.
  • Three alternative methods, each more likely to deliver direction, focus, and inspiration.
  • How to identify the approach that best fits your district’s needs.
Insights shared in this session are relevant to leaders at all stages of the planning cycle (preparing, developing, launching, or executing) and can help any district strengthen engagement and focus for the year ahead.
