Strategic Planning Team
Charge:
March 11, 2008
The Board of Directors of the First Unitarian Universalist Church of Nashville charges the Strategic Planning Team to:
- define strategies to enable our vision and mission in a manner that is consistent with our principles
- develop a five-year strategic plan that defines a course of action to provide programs, staff, facilities, and budget that support progression toward achievement of our strategies
The development of strategies should be an inclusive process with input from the entire church community and be informed by our vision, mission and principles.
- The strategies should take into consideration the existing church community along with external communities to which we belong and serve. In addition to defining an approach to meet our vision, the strategies should specifically address questions of future church membership, facilities, and outreach.
- The process of defining strategies should take into consideration the possibility of the evolution of ideas and provide the flexibility to review and amend the strategies during their development. The process of defining the five-year strategic plan should allow for assessment of costs and impacts, resulting in a prioritization of actions that can be supported by current and planned resources.
- The Strategic Planning Team should begin as soon as possible to develop a process that will occur over a one-year timeline, execute the process, and be ready to report the results to the congregation at the Mid-Year Congregational Meeting in January 2009.
The Team reports directly to the Board of Directors and is requested to present monthly progress reports at each board meeting until the process is completed.
