Task force completes initial research, moves on now to preparing for public input

WFHB has reached a critical step in our ongoing strategic planning initiative: the completion of research into best practices, interviews with sister stations, and a SWOT analysis by guest members of our strategic planning process.  See the files attached below for:

Project Introduction - a snapshot of where we are in the process and where we're going

Scope & Timeline - a week-by-week breakdown of tasks and goals

Summary Best Practices and SWOT - an essential guide to all research done so far

Best Practices Worksheet - the raw data gathered from our best practices research (80 pages long)

Next, our twelve-member strategic planning task force will review our research and discuss formats and questions for a public survey, focus group, and public forum.

"Strategic planning" refers to a rigorous collaborative process used to reveal the strengths and weaknesses of an organization, examine its mission, gather input on where key stakeholders want the organization to go, and provide a blueprint on how to get there.

All community members are encouraged to “stay tuned” to the airwaves, social media, and the station website for dates and times of upcoming community input sessions.  Station staff have created an online repository for documents, dates, and other information related to the strategic planning process:
