Strategy/Planning:

LifeCourse Strategies begins the strategic process with a comprehensive evaluation of the aging and long-term care organization. We help the organization take its vision from concept to practice by analyzing each strategic issue contextually, based on our thorough understanding of the aging and long-term care field and America's dramatic sociodemographic changes.

Following the evaluation process, we assist organizations to develop short and long-range plans with newly clarified goals and objectives. Our principal focus is helping organizations move closer to their vision. As a result of our unique approach, organizations avoid the pitfall of developing plans that remain dormant or on endless "to-do" lists.

LifeCourse Strategies Planning Process:

• Assists organizations to identify their unique qualities and characteristics with the purpose of clarifying an organization's direction and vision
• Builds consensus and interdependencies among organization staff - necessary for effective organizational planning
• Develops short-term (one-year) and long-term (three-year) strategies, with specific action plans and tasks, based on the organization's strengths and weaknesses, goals and objectives, direction, and internal and external environment
