3 Modes of Governance Fiduciary Mode – Key Questions
"How are we doing to date?" “Are we in compliance?” The board as “watchdog” - Anything wrong?
Strategic Mode – Key Questions "What should we be doing?” "Where are we going?“ The board as “strategist” - What’s the plan?
Generative Mode – Key Questions “What are the new possibilities?” “What’s the new question?” The board as “sense-maker” - What’s coming next?”

No perfect one-size-fits-all strategic planning model for every organization at all times.
The Premise . . .
![Page 8: Presented by: Frank Martinelli The Center for Public Skills Training.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110205/56649ca15503460f94960203/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
What is the purpose or hoped for outcomes to be achieved by strategic planning?
Is a comprehensive planning process that includes work on mission and vision or is the organization only looking to update an existing plan at the level of strategy or action objectives?
How rapidly is the external environment changing and what level of threat to the organization do these changes pose?
It Depends . . .
![Page 9: Presented by: Frank Martinelli The Center for Public Skills Training.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110205/56649ca15503460f94960203/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Have past planning efforts been successful or not and what is the level of support for strategic planning this time around?
Based on organizational culture and style, is there a preference for one strategic planning approach over another?
It Depends . . .

Scenario Planning
![Page 65: Presented by: Frank Martinelli The Center for Public Skills Training.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110205/56649ca15503460f94960203/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
Step 1. State the focal issue or purpose. Step 2. List the key factors that influence
the future in which our YWCA will operate. Step 3. List the driving forces among these
key factors. Forces that are highly predictable or
predetermined (i.e. demographics) Forces that are uncertain (i.e. public opinion).
Step 4. Rank the key factors and driving forces by importance and by uncertainty.
Step 5. Develop alternate futures.
Scenario Planning Steps

1. Develop an initial description of this scenario -- how you might expect this scenario to play out for the YWCA – what would be happening in such a future?
2. What is the impact of this future scenario on the YWCA and/or community served?
3. What are the implications for the YWCA? - What actions would we take to advance our mission if we knew this were the future?
4. Write a short story or narrative that describes your assigned scenario.

Collaborative Strategic Planning

Collaborative Strategic Planning Increasingly common – and important!
Focus on a shared customer base or constituency rather than developing a plan for one organization

Preparing to Plan What do you expect to accomplish? How much commitment is there to the
process? Is there organizational readiness for
strategic planning? How will the board and key staff be oriented
to the process?

Preparing to Plan How long will it take? Who else should be involved? How? How will we encourage boldness, risk-taking
and creativity on the part of planning participants?
Should a consultant be used for all or part of the process?
