Definitions of the strategic plan elements included in the CIWMB’s 2001
Strategic Plan include:
- Vision: An inspiring picture of what the organization would like to
become beyond today. It is not bound by time, represents continuing
purposes, and serves as a foundation for a system of strategic planning.
- Mission: The reason for an organization’s existence. It
succinctly identifies what the organization does, why, and for whom it does
it.
- Values: The human factors that drive the conduct of an organization
and that function as a guide to the development and implementation of all
policies and actions. They are a summary of the operating philosophies that
will be used in fulfilling the mission and vision.
- Goals: Issues-oriented statements that reflect the realistic
priorities of the organization and chart the future direction by focusing
actions toward clearly defined purposes and policy intention.
- Objectives: Specific and measurable targets for the accomplishment
of a goal. They mark interim steps toward achievement of the mission and
goals and set the direction for strategies.
- Strategies: Specific courses of action that will be undertaken by
the organization to accomplish its goals. They indicate how the goals and
objectives will be achieved.
