A 3-Stage Approach to Helping Any Organization. Discuss each point in each stage thoroughly. Someone needs to keep notes! (The notes will be very revealing).

STAGE 1: VISION CASTING
What have we done?
What are we doing?
What do we want to do?

STAGE 2: RESOURCE MANAGEMENT
Who has been touched/affected by this organization?
Who is being touched/affected?
Who do we want to touch/affect in the future?

STAGE 3: STRATEGIC DEVELOPMENT
How have we done it?
Who are we doing it?
How do we want to do it?

*By the time you have gotten here, you will have a pretty good idea of your organizational leaders desire to move ahead or live in the past. (Coming to terms with this is 90% of preparing existing organizations for the future).
