Teaching Others to Strategically Plan
Once you empower others to pursue strategic planning, and they desire to apply strategic planning to their own lives, teaching them won’t be difficult. Walk them through the process this book walks you through. Provide them a copy of this book and explain what you learned and how you applied what you learned. Share your strategic plan with them, or if you don’t
feel comfortable doing so, describe your process in creating and pursuing your strategic plan. Consider putting on a webinar or podcast describing your journey and encourage others to pursue their own similar journey to improve their lives and careers. The process itself – learning it – isn’t difficult. Following through is the hard part, and the most important role you can serve is encouraging others and holding them accountable to pursue and enact the plans they crafted and drafted.
Creating an Army of Strategic Planners
An army of strategic planners starts with one soldier – you. You engage in strategic planning.
It works for you. You share your success with others. They do it too. It works for them. They share their success with others. Others do it too. And so on. You’re creating an army of true believers, of disciples who saw strategic planning work for someone else, applied it to their lives, experienced it working for them, shared their success, and the process then repeats. The more lives you touch, the more lives they touch. The more lives you transform, the more lives they transform. It’s a natural, organic process that helps expand your zone of influence which helps others define and achieve their goals through the power of strategic planning.
