Strategic Planning & Project Implementation Workshop

Client Challenges

Many organizations leave a planning retreat energized, then watch the momentum fade once everyone returns to daily operations. The strategic plan becomes a document on a shelf instead of a roadmap that guides the year. Common challenges include:

• Big-picture goals that never get broken down into concrete, achievable projects
• Competing priorities with no clear sense of what comes first
• Timelines and milestones that are vague, unrealistic, or missing entirely
• Unclear ownership, so responsibilities blur and follow-through stalls
• No shared system for tracking progress and holding the team accountable

Our Approach

Wright Rhodes Group facilitates a focused, hands-on workshop tailored to your organization. Rather than deliver generic training, we help your team do the actual work of turning strategy into an implementation plan they can start executing immediately. The engagement includes:

• Discovery call: A 30 to 60 minute conversation to understand your goals, context, and constraints before we design the session
• Needs assessment and customized agenda: A workshop built specifically around your priorities, not a one-size-fits-all template
• Facilitated working session: A 4 to 5 hour facilitated workshop where we prioritize initiatives, break goals into projects, and map realistic timelines and milestones
• Roles and accountability: Assigning responsibilities and building a simple structure for tracking progress and improving accountability
• Action plan before you leave: Your team finishes the session with a working implementation plan, not just new ideas

What We Deliver

Every engagement leaves your organization with a complete implementation toolkit, so the value continues long after the workshop ends:

• Strategic Priorities Worksheet: A clear ranking of what matters most and why
• Project Prioritization Matrix: A structured way to weigh impact against effort and sequence the work
• 12-Month Action Plan: Goals translated into projects, tasks, and owners across the year
• Timeline Template: Milestones and deadlines mapped to keep momentum on track
• Responsibility Assignment Matrix (RACI): Clear ownership for every initiative and decision
• Meeting Cadence Template: A rhythm for check-ins that keeps accountability alive
• Next Steps Summary: A concise recap and immediate action items, plus electronic copies of all materials

Outcomes

Organizations that complete the workshop move from planning to progress with confidence:

• From ideas to implementation: A concrete roadmap replaces good intentions
• Aligned leadership and staff: Everyone leaves with shared priorities and a common plan
• Clear ownership: Each initiative has an owner, a timeline, and a way to measure progress
• Lasting capacity: Reusable templates and a meeting rhythm keep the work moving after we step away

Engagement & Investment

Workshops are offered as a fixed-fee engagement, typically ranging from $2,000 to $5,000 depending on session length and scope, from a half-day facilitated workshop through a full day paired with 30 days of implementation support. Optional 30-day implementation coaching is available as a natural follow-on. We confirm the exact fee after a brief scoping conversation so you know your investment up front.
