Friday June 12, 2026 7:47pm - 7:47pm CDT

TBA

This session will introduce participants to the basic components of the long-range planning process. Just as when one sets out on an adventure in the great outdoors, long-range planning involves provisioning one’s stores, charting the path, and forecasting the weather to come. Topics covered in this session include the purpose and benefits of long-range planning; the components of a long-range plan; the planning team and member roles; and how to get started with the planning process. After this session, participants will have a checklist to prepare for the long-range planning process, be familiar with the language of strategic planning, and be able to identify the core components of a long-range plan, ensuring they are well equipped for the journey ahead.
