I’m very pleased to share with you here the final draft of the 2016 Division of Outreach & Engagement Strategic Plan.

This draft contains the vision, mission, values, goals, and strategy text that will go into the final, polished set of plan documents. In the coming months Ann Marie Murphy, the Division Communications & Marketing Manager, will be working on designing those polished documents – so expect a formal launch of the Strategic Plan in a couple of months.

In the meantime, enjoy this version of the plan!

The moment we’ve all been waiting for: the values and goals for the OSU Division of Outreach & Engagement have been finalized! Here is the fourth and final draft of our values and our goals for the next five years. Enjoy!

When we do that, any and all aspects of the draft will be on the table for revision. We just wanted to give you a chance now to ring in and see where we are in the drafting process.

Last week at the Extension Conference I gave a short presentation about the Strategic Planning effort – what the process is and where we are in the process now. In case some of you weren’t able to make it, or you’re just interested in seeing it again, here it is!

O&E Strat Plan Update – Extension Conference_20151201

During the Extension Conference last week, a few colleagues asked if I could post some of the strategic plans we’re using to guide our development of the Division Strategic Plan. Specifically, they asked for the Extension and Extension Program Area strategic plans, so here they are – in one place, along with OSU SP 3.0 and the Open Campus plan!

Purpose of the Division of Outreach & Engagement’s Strategic Plan

• Demonstrate the Division’s alignment with OSU’s Strategic Plan 3.0
• Demonstrate the Division’s alignment with various stakeholders and anticipate the future for those stakeholders
• Guide the way units in the Division do their outreach and engagement work and operate more generally (as opposed to guide what they do, topically).
• Provide bold new development/growth opportunities for the way units in the Division operate and engage with clientele (learners and other external entities)
• Help units see how their current strategies are contributing to the achievement of the Division’s goals. Help them see how they port into the Division.
• Help units identify/determine if new ideas or strategies they are contemplating or get presented to them will contribute to the Division’s goals
• Foster a common culture and set of values across Division
• Spark innovation
• Inform the development of the 2017 biennium legislative package

Time-frame of Strategic Plan

• Scheduled completion: June 2016
• Proposed strategies should be implementable in 5 years

Desired structure of Strategic Plan

• Once the plan is complete the goals should remain stable, but the strategies should be flexible so that units can adjust or add to them throughout the 5 year implementation phase
• Outline should be:
  • Mission (same as the 2009 Division Strategic Plan)
  • Vision (same as 2009)
  • Core Service offerings
  • Strategic Goals
  • Broad Strategies
• Diversity, Equity & inclusion should be embedded in each strategic goal area within the broad strategies

Strategic Plan development process must address:

• OSU SP 3.0
• Inclusion of stakeholders’ perspectives: University leadership, Public agency siblings, NGOs that do similar work to us and partner with us, Funders (NIFA, legislators, counties), Learners, Internal faculty & staff
• Whether or not the 2009 strategic plan goal areas are still the right ones for the Division
• Creation/development of shared values for Division
• Creation of strategies for achieving goals
