Strategic Planning

Please note: this event is run by the Small Business Development Corporation for small business owners in Western Australia only.

Without a strategic plan it's too easy to become caught up in the daily tasks of running a business, only to discover too late that the time, energy and money you've invested hasn't achieved your desired results. A solid strategic plan will help you determine your internal strengths and limitations, and understand the external environment in which your business operates. Having this knowledge you allow you to build a plan that focuses your energy and resources on what will deliver the highest value returns. This workshop will provide the tools to build your strategic plan and to ensure you stay on track to achieve your goals.

This topic covers:

• Understanding what you really want and need
• Investigating the external environment and target markets
• Considering your strengths and constraints
• Determining organisational capacity
• Setting long, medium and short term goals
• Ways to stay on track

This session is for existing business owners. 

The facilitator of this topic, Capstone Management Solutions helps business owners navigate the complexity of owning, growing and transitioning through all stages of business. They have more than 25 years of experience in providing training and one-to-one support programs, aimed at optimising skills for business owners.
