Abstract

Long-Range Planning: An Overview

II. Long-Range Planning: A Faculty Development Strategy

The concept of planning is as universally embraced as parenthood and pizza. Through planning, an individual or institution attempts to gain better control of the future, to make decisions in a systematic and thoughtful way. We may ask ourselves how anyone could oppose a process designed to achieve a greater modicum of order in our individual and institutional lives. And, indeed, it is the rare voice that is raised against the planning concept.
