Aligning the Strategic Plan

You have planned a plan in the initial outline of your Strategic Plan and drafted a budget. Briefly, explain your chosen organizations mission and vision, and assess whether the initial outline, SWOT/PEST analysis, and budget align.

In your discussion, critically assess what you consider to be the primary factors that demonstrate alignment. If there are factors that fall outside alignment, identify them and briefly state what you consider will be the necessary changes to bring them into alignment.

Your post must:

• Be at least 300 Words.
• Contain a minimum of one reference with citation in APA style.
• Follow APA style guidelines.

Response Guidelines

Respond to at least one other learner regarding alignment of a planned outline, SWOT/PEST analysis, budget, and primary factors that demonstrate alignment.

Your response must be substantive and contribute to the discussion. Compare your analysis to that of your peer and comment on the similarities and differences that you see. If there are aspects that you do not agree with, present an argument to support your position. If you need more information from your peer, be sure to ask questions for clarity
