Dynamic Strategic Planning: A Powerful Process for Real-World Results

Most strategic plans fail, and this book begins with a brief overview of why they fail and what can be done about it. Traditional strategic planning provides the "illusion of control" but is often unrealistic and so doomed to failure. Dynamic Strategic Planning is highly realistic and easy to understand. It incorporates the author's 30-plus years of facilitating strategic planning with organizations of all kinds and sizes, learning what works and does not work, and exploring optional planning methods. Most significant is new discoveries of how living systems ranging from ant colonies to corporations and the stock market learn to adapt to the constantly changing environment, surviving and thriving as a result.

* Plans are highly realistic and are actually enacted
* People are personally committed to all goals and make them happen

* Implementing the strategic plan allows the organization to accomplish big improvements it had not been able to achieve before
