(1) Strategic Planning is an organizational
process within the discipline of sociology designed to develop a common
unified organizational culture and to define organizational procedures,
activities, and behaviors for maintaining a unified organizational

(2) Strategic planning is an organizational management activity that is
used to set priorities, focus energy and resources, strengthen
operations, ensure that employees and other stakeholders are working
toward common goals, establish agreement around intended
outcomes/results, and assess and adjust the organization's direction in
response to a changing environment. It is a disciplined effort that
produces fundamental decisions and actions that shape and guide what an
organization is, who it serves, what it does, and why it does it, with a
focus on the future. Effective strategic planning articulates not only
where an organization is going and the actions needed to make progress,
but also how it will know if it is successful. Source:

that spent a year drafting a revised Strategic Plan. The Strategic
