Imagine what background a relatively new member of the leadership team might value knowing. If first time exercise, outline what the purpose of the planning exercise is.]\nEXAMPLE: The broad direction and ultimate objectives for this year’s planning exercise is largely set. We have $XM in the bank, a target of $XXM revenue within ‘Y’ period and rough capital allocations set. i.e. CXO has her core dev team for next 12 months, $XXM marketing budget allocated.\nThe purpose of this year’s exercise is to gel the leadership group around common objectives AND use the wisdom of the group to debate key strategic questions and priorities. The board will confirm the over-arching strategy and adopt the operating plan after ensuring it aligns with our vision and strategy.\nPROCESS [Example – adapt to your needs]\nWe’ll tackle the exercise in 3 phases:\nKEY MEETINGS [Example – adapt to your needs]\nTASKS [Examples included – adapt to your needs]\nKEY","cbCaitnU525Z0a4H","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaitnU525Z0a4H","docx",25607,"English","# Background\n# Process\n## Phases\n# Key Meetings\n# Tasks","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of this annual planning exercise?\",\"answer\":\"To align the leadership group around common objectives and use collective wisdom to debate key strategic questions and priorities.\"},{\"question\":\"What elements should be covered in the background section?\",\"answer\":\"The general business context for the year, including the rationale a new leader would benefit from and example assumptions like available cash and target revenue.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the process organize the planning work?\",\"answer\":\"It breaks the exercise into three phases and then outlines key meetings and tasks to drive execution.\"}]","Annual Planning Template - Leadership Planning Exercise | DOCX"]
