Lesson 2: Long-term Planning and Strategic Goal Setting (1 contact hour)

---

In this lesson:  

You will learn a systematic, stepwise procedure for forming your ultimate, strategic (long term) goal and reducing it to writing. 

In the process, you will learn how to:

• Determine what is it, exactly, that you are managing.
• Keep your focus on the big picture.
• Be sure you are including the right people in the right place.
• Apply these principles to very large, diverse organizations.

We discuss such things as common mistakes and challenges, expressing your personal values (something many people have trouble with) and dealing with (family and/or business organization) dysfunction.

You will come to realize how much power is in a well thought out strategic goal. Everything you do, every decision you make will be tested against your strategic goal.

In one short hour, we will show you how. Taking these lessons home and applying them will pay for the entire cost of our total core program of instruction many times over.
