About this publication

Text

A strategic plan captures an organisation’s strategy and is used to communicate what the organisation intends to do over the next few years. Strategy development and planning is the process of creating the strategy and bringing it to life so that all involved are aligned and engaged in delivering the strategy.

This good practice guide sets out the key benefits of strategic planning and considers the three different governance modes which underpin the board’s role in strategic planning.

This publication is part of Hospice UK’s Governance Support Programme for hospice boards and trustees.
