©SHRM 2012 2 Section Title (12 point Arial; color = white) What is Strategic Planning The process by which we can become what we want to become through setting a strategy. The identification of opportunities and the allocation of resources to exploit those opportunities. The rational determination of where you are, where you want to go, and how and when you are going to get there (GAP). It is setting the direction for the organization’s membership’s future (1 year, 3-5 years, and up).
