You have a strategic plan in place but have you got to the appropriate level of commitment from staff to deliver on it?
Are you structured and appropriately aligned to help you execute your strategic plans?
Is your organisation too internally focused?
Are you leveraging all the opportunities from the community outcomes process aside from meeting your statutory obligations?
Are your decision support functions able to provide you with meaningful, timely and relevant data?
In recent times strategy development has become an essential core competency within the local government sector.
