Simplified Strategic Planning : A No-Nonsense Guide For Busy People Who Want Results Fast. Chandler House Press, 2000. It is difficult for managers in small or medium-sized operations to escape the day-to-day hectic pace, since we are generally in the thick of operations and not insulated by support staffs. The approach presented in Simplified Strategic Planning is very pragmatic, and should enablean organization such as ours to address the critical components of strategic planning, while avoiding wasted effort in the plan "filter" that often accompanies such efforts. This process places a priorty on closure in the strategic decision-making process and facilitates follow-up to help ensure that he planning effort is not a wasted annual exercise with no closure.
