Outline an extensive strategic planning framework that showcases clear goals and objectives to the employees. Having a strategic planning framework is as important as budget-oriented planning or forecast- based planning. Business strategic planning lays down targets, assesses both internal and external situation, develops a strategy, executes the strategy, analyzes the progress, monitors and measures the performance, and adjusts accordingly to accomplish goals and targets.

 

This planning framework keeps managers and employees on the same page. They work together in setting the priorities, intensifying operations, identifying ways to improve business and achieving new heights.
