COACHING
AGILE STRATEGY PLANNING LAB
Agile Strategy Planning Lab helps nonprofit leadership teams shape a shared vision for their organization’s future and a clear plan to reach it. Executive directors, staff, and board members do this work together, so everyone stands behind the direction they set.
Over 14 weeks, Youth INC guides a small cohort of Nonprofit Partners through facilitated sessions and one-on-one coaching, then stays alongside each team as its plan takes hold.
THE GOAL
A Structured Path to Strategy
In the Lab, strategy is a living plan, shaped by the people who will carry it out and built to adapt as circumstances change. Leaders work through a structured blueprint alongside peers facing similar questions, turning big ideas into clear priorities.
Strategy that delivers
From Planning to Progress
I was most proud of our teamwork in this process. We were considerate of each other’s perspectives and truly partnered well to complete our strategic plan. Another highlight was connecting with other executive directors through the process. We now connect offline on issues that impact our organizations.

The Lab was a phenomenal experience for the Fiver Children's Foundation. We have been through strategic planning before and were disappointed with the results. This process fully engaged a committee of board members and staff, over a brief but intensive period, and resulted in a meaningful and thorough plan to guide our mission forward.
