Signature Assignment: Final Strategic Plan and Presentation

o As we prepare Week 6 assignments and the presentation of your Comprehensive Strategic plan, I thought it would be best if we reviewed the requirements. I have attached a description of the assignment and the Rubric.Use the subtopic category in the Rubric excel spread sheet to be sure you have included everything in your plan.

It is important to remember that this plan is a combined version of what you have written. Included in the comprehensive plan are the Reasons for the Plan and Parts I, II, and III that you have already worked on in prior weeks. Not all parts of each previous assignment are required. You will then add the last sections for this week.

When you are done there will be only one introduction, one conclusion and one reference page. The reason will be the overall reason for the plan. Going over in word count does not matter and often happens.

Remember to include the Budget and SWOT /GAP analysis and any other graphics you like in either the paper or the power point or can be submitted separately. These can be posted separately or as an appendix in the paper.

Reference page on the Comprehensive Plan – note: The reference page for the plan will include all the references you have used in creating your plan over the past assignments.
