Impact: Did you achieve or make progress towards the goals identified in your strategic plan? What evidence/data do you have?

Implementation: Did you do (with fidelity) what you said you were going to do in your strategic plan? What evidence/data do you have?

Reflection: If you did not have the impact expected or implement with fidelity, why? What should you be aware of in this planning process?

ACTIVITY: Reflect on the Work

Review what you said you were going to do in your previous strategic plan and reflect on whether you achieved the impact you expected. These guiding questions will help set that stage for the rest of the needs assessment.
