The Challenge Finding a sense of authentic self as an institution, a true sense of mission, and the means to live that mission were the central focus of a strategic planning process addressed by the University of Central Oklahoma about fifteen years ago. As the institution grew within a metropolitan-serving mission, the goal to transform students from adolescents to adults and find new potential in their lives led to an exciting journey that is still vibrant and relevant today. Potential Consequences The theoretical base provided within transformative learning has helped students, staff, and faculty align efforts. Description This case study provides replicable processes and specifics that may help others find a clearer path for fulfilling their mission. The study describes how the University of Central Oklahoma’s (UCO’s) transformative learning focus coalesced and became the point of distinction for a UCO education, helping to ensure that all activity supported our mission—helping students learn. Reflection The compelling, lived sense of mission developed from the initial strategic planning process has helped to strengthen the learner-centered culture of the campus while providing a structure that facilitates implementation and assessment.

This article describes a systematic process of geographic and strategic planning for healthcare services as a part of a regional development plan in the Israeli Galilee. The planning process consisted of three stages: (a) assessment of needs, demand and existing resources; (b) prioritisation of initiatives; and (c) scheduling of theoretical priorities. For many years the region has suffered from inequities and inequalities regarding the availability and accessibility of a regional healthcare system, resulting in high mortality and morbidity rates and low quality of life. The aim of the healthcare strategic plan was to suggest initiatives and actions to be taken in order to improve healthcare provision and the health and wellbeing of local residents.

The present study intends to appraise how the real relationship between organizational culture and process of strategic planning is in practice. Therefore, besides the bibliographical exploratory research, an in loco case study with a ski-resort, in Unites States, was carried. It has been noticed that, for the company in question, it is important the alignment of the strategy with its culture, the definition and clear disclosure of its values, as well as its culture turned to the apprenticement. The strategic thought of its members were fundamental for the efficacy from its Strategic Planning. Moreover, it was estabilished that culture influences the strategic planning process. It also influences the culture. So, the strategic planning is used as a mean of disseminating the culture of the company and for its modification.

PurposeThis paper aims to demonstrate the value of combining the strategic planning process with psychoanalytically informed interpretation through an exploratory case study.Design/methodology/approachThe authors present their experiences and findings from a consulting engagement that began as a strategic planning assignment and soon evolved into an opportunity to explore unconscious forces inhibiting organizational change. The authors, trained in both areas, chose to infuse the two into a combined process that ultimately benefited the organization and suggested novel ways to think about the common process of strategic planning going forward.FindingsThe organization's strategic planning process was considerably enhanced, and its outcomes sustained, by illuminating the unconscious forces at work, particularly as they pertain to issues of power and authority in a male organizational culture found to have a profound negative influence upon the quality of the work environment and employee morale. Findings suggest that without a psychoanalytically informed approach, strategic planning would have failed to produce sustainable change.Research limitations/implicationsWhile the findings reported are from a single case study, the themes explored are likely shared across multiple organizations. There is, therefore, significant potential in combining strategic planning with a psychoanalytic approach to improve organizational effectiveness and employee morale.Originality/valueAlthough common in organizations, strategic planning is rarely augmented with psychoanalytic insights. This case study is the first of its kind to show how the two interventions may complement each other.

The study developed a meta-framework for the strategic planning process, which is an inter-dynamic aspect of strategic processing. Furthermore, it follows multiple case study analysis, and panel data regression analysis conducted to validate the study, the limitations and future scope of the research discussed along with the result. The asset of an organization considered as an essential element in sustainable business practices, hence the three predictors taken from asset section of financial statements of case organizations and the results discussed such as cash and cash equivalent is an important factor for practicing sustainability.

Bodies of territorial public self-government (TPSG) are one of the key participants in the strategic planning process at the municipal level. These organizations make an important contribution to achievement of sustainable development goals of the municipality. Territorial public self-government bodies are not the driving force behind the development of the municipal economy. However, they are able to solve the problems of social development of the territory by using the resources of self-organization. The existing potential allows TPSG bodies not only to participate in the development of strategic documents, but also to take part in the implementation of specific projects. Participation in the project can be carried out both in a non-financial form (labor) and in a financial form (based on the results of use of self-taxation, crowdfunding, fundraising, business income, and other sources). Therefore, it is extremely important for the authorities to involve TPSG bodies in strategic planning processes in order to improve the quality of final documents, as well as increase the efficiency of their realization. However, a number of factors hinder the successful involvement of bodies of territorial public self government in strategic planning processes. The established practice of involvement of public in managerial decision-making processes leads to a low interest of non-profit organizations in participation in such procedures. In addition, the level of development of educational infrastructure in the field of territorial public self-government does not allow the heads of territorial public selfgovernment bodies to achieve the sustainable development goals of the municipality territory, as well as to develop skills in organizational management within its borders. As a result of the introduction of a set of suggested measures in the regions, the conditions will be created for the territorial public self-government authorities to realize their potential fully, which will ultimately be reflected in the improvement of the quality of residents’ life.
