USC Organizations and Strategic Planning & Planning Nonprofit Sector Questions

I’m working on a social science Discussion and need support to help me study.

Review the different strategic planning samples in the scatterdesk media piece, Strategic Planning for Human Services Professionals, and the planning process from the Deciding Organizational Priorities by Sector media piece.

Briefly discuss your understanding of government organizations (public sector), for-profit organizations (private sector), nonprofit organizations (civil society sector), and mixed organizations (mixed or hybrid sector), and their roles in society.

Describe your experience as a professional engaged in strategic planning for a public, private, civil society, or mixed organization. Discuss your understanding of the role strategic planning plays in the success or failure of any organization. If you have not engaged in the strategic planning process, discuss what you believe would be the role you would play in the process, and for which sector.

  2.Planning in Which Sector?

  Your personal experience working in the four sectors is a major factor in how you engage in strategic planning. This is due to the practical reality that every human services professional enters the profession with different experiences and perspectives. These differences directly affect how strategic planning is conducted.Choose a public, private, civil society, or mixed organization that will be the subject of your strategic plan for the course project, and provide a rationale for your choice. You may have a personal and professional role in the organization, or you may aspire to serve in the organization.
