“The thing about goals is that living without them is a lot more fun, in the short run.
It seems to me, though, that the people who get things done, who lead, who grow
and who make an impact…those people have goals.”
​- Seth Godin
Strategic thinking about organizational vision, goals, and plans should not be relegated to an infrequent, static process; it can be iterative, collaborative, and ongoing. Strategic Planning, Strategic Thinking, Strategic Goal Setting are all ways to describe
the process of articulating the goals and actions to achieve success.
 
Acies Strategies approaches strategic planning in schools with fresh eyes; there are no “cookie cutter” plans. Furthermore, we offer cost-effective options for small schools so that they may benefit from the participation of outside guidance when school improvement planning.

We facilitate:
  • Full school Strategic Plans​ (see below for options)
  • Leadership Retreats
  • Strategic thinking for project completion
  • Goal setting and planning for individuals and smaller groups

Three Options for Strategic Planning Support

Tier #1

Full support with multiple campus visits. The school community engages with consultants throughout the strategic planning process.

Tier #2

Modified support with visits, guidance, resources. The school community partners with consultants throughout the strategic planning process.

Tier #3

Limited support with guidance and resources so that many members of the school community play an active role and the consultant guides the strategic planning process.
“Thanks to Brooke’s guidance and highly organized approach, our Board was able to unite behind a forward-looking strategic plan and vision for Evergreen’s future! Our planning retreat was such an effective use of everyone’s time and the end result was beyond our expectations.”
-John DiMarchi, Head of School, Evergreen School
