9781118605929: Visual Strategy: Strategy Mapping for Public and Nonprofit Organizations

Synopsis

Strategic planning becomes visual with strategy maps and the tools, techniques, and guidance for turning them into effective action. Developed as a companion workbook to John Bryson's best-selling Strategic Planning in Public and Nonprofit Organizations, Visual Strategy: A Workbook for Strategy Mapping in Public and Nonprofit Organizations, goes beyond making the case for good and effective strategic planning to making strategy visual through effective strategy mapping. Strategy mapping prevents groups of people from talking over one another and going around in circles. It helps people speak and be heard, produce lots of ideas and understand how they fit together, make use of causal reasoning, and clarify ultimately what they want to do in terms of mission, goals, strategies, and actions. Strategy mapping can join process and content in such a way that good ideas worth implementing are found and the agreements and comments needed to implement them are reached. The result is living strategic plans that act as useful guides to action. With detailed examples, actual strategy maps, process guidelines and hand-drawn illustrations, the book will help leaders, managers, students and other professionals see patterns across mission, goals, strategies and actions while helping to identify areas of alignment and misalignment and determine, real time, where elements are needed, missing or not useful in a strategic plan. For leaders and managers of public and nonprofit organizations, facilitators and consultants, professors and students of strategic planning, strategic management, strategic mapping, and public policy, professional development workshops focused on strategic planning and strategy mapping.

From the Back Cover

THE WORKBOOK FOR MAKING STRATEGIC PLANNING MORE EFFECTIVE

"Visual Strategy clearly helps users chart the journey from hopeful vision to effective action. The approach integrates strategic thinking and visual understanding, with each reinforcing the other. The result of using strategy mapping is palpable: a shared vision guiding collective action that makes a demonstrable positive difference."
--Michael Quinn Patton, author of Utilization-Focused Evaluation and Getting to Maybe: How the World Is Changed; past President of the American Evaluation Association

"John Bryson is the go-to resource on strategic planning in public and nonprofit organizations. The mapping techniques illustrated by Bryson and his colleagues in Visual Strategy helped our nonprofit navigate through the great recession and come out on the other side in a stronger position. Every nonprofit leader should read this book and the associated books by these authors."
--Jocelyn Hale, Executive Director, The Loft Literary Center; National Arts Strategies CEO Fellow
