You've been asked to lead strategic planning.

Now what?

Whether you're a new Executive Director, a board chair, or the person who got volunteered because you're good with leading projects-this book gives you a clear, practical structure to lead a focused, and organized strategic planning process without burnout or overwhelm.

Strategic Planning Simplified walks you step by step through a refreshingly straightforward method called the Clarity Method-designed for real-world, small nonprofits that want to make progress, not just paperwork.

Inside, you'll learn how to:

• Gather stakeholder input before the meeting
• Sort competing priorities into clear focus areas
• Facilitate meetings with calm and confidence
• Build a plan your team will actually use
• Create a follow-up system that keeps momentum going

You'll also follow the story of Alex Morgan, a first-time Executive Director learning how to lead her team through strategic planning in a way that feels empowering, not overwhelming.

You can successfully lead strategic planning, and you may even fall in love with the process along the way.
