Planning
Planning is about
making your mission, vision,
goals and strategy explicit.
It will help clarify
why your organization exists
and what your organization does
that is of value.
9息 2014 National Arts Strategies.
Failing to Plan is Planning to Fail
10息 2014 National Arts Strategies.

people at the right
time

counterintuitive

an organisation

Common Traps
 Planning in the midst of a crisis

 Planning for a very, very long time (fatigue)
 Creating the big book no one ever looks at
17息 2014 National Arts Strategies.
Craft Your Story for Your Audience
Help your colleagues really hear what you are saying
18
What do you need
to say? How
will it be heard?
19
Language can get in our way
20
Preparation is important!
 Great performance starts with a
great script. Consider your
audience and your message and
write your own script when you
are preparing for an important
conversation.
21
Your script
 What is my desired outcome? What is their desired
outcome?
 How much time will I have and in what setting?
 What do they need to know before we speak?
 What is the arc of this conversation?
 And after: what happened and what are the next
actions?
22
The arc of a good conversation
 Everyone involved in the conversation
understands the purpose of the
conversation.
 Background information is offered or has
been seen before the conversation.
 There is regular exchange so that
everyone is confident they are talking
about the same thing.
 There is a clear understanding about
what happens next.
23
Communicating with Different Stakeholders
 Who has the power to help, or hinder, your planning or
program?
 What does he/she care about?
