Strategic Planning - Be Careful Who Leads It

Who you pick to lead your strategic planning is critical.
1) Have they had repeated success in life
2) Are they trusted by most people
3) Can they communicate well and get buy-in
4) Do they understand the importance of your workplace culture
5) Are they analytical and can see problems, solutions and develop priorities

Don't just select anyone. This can jeopardize not only the results, but also the acceptance of your plan.
