The importance of Strategic Planning is to provide guidance and outline goals for a business to have a successful future. Planning is to provide the business with a day to day guidance to make decisions, analyze data, and prepare the business for the future by making changes based on data reports and the different functions of the business that needs to be changed moving forward. Strategic Planning comes with 5 stages: clarify your vision, gather and analyze information, formulate a strategy, implement your strategy, evaluate and control. Each one of these steps will prepare you to look at the bigger picture when creating or operating a company for that business to be successful and continue to have growth. The main purpose of setting goals is to have a clear vision as to how you want your company to run, setting objectives and having a plan as to how you are going to accomplish your objectives will prepare you a mission statement for individuals to invest in your business. While operating a business you have to know the needs of your business and implement your vision from the beginning to the end. When operating a business it’s important to identify SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) that may appear at any time during the times of operation. Reaching goals is highly important because it allows you to visualize the internal and external goals that you have completed or looking forward in the future to complete. Having set goals when operating a business will allow you to develop different approaches as to where you see your business going in the present and future, it also helps you to analyze data throughout the years of operation to give a vision of improvements and what is yet to come for your business. When you set goals you have to outline different responsibilities for your team and have them set goals for themselves to take advantage of higher paid opportunities. Setting clear duties will allow your team to work together, save time, and build relationships and get things done then a team with no direction that has to figure things out based on each other's ideas. As a team, everyone should be observed to know whether or not they can perform the duties of the job and understand the different functions of the business operations for the business to continue to grow and become successful. Quarterly measurements of performance are recommended when you want to see your business grow on a quarterly basis. All businesses should have a corrective action plan to solve issues internal and external within a business. As a business owner or someone looking to start a business its important to pay attention, understand the data and make decisions based on what your business needs at any given moment.

Vision Statement: Organizing HR projects to improve the business by establishing a project team to initiate the needed changes for the company and its people.

Mission Statement: Organizing HR projects to improve the business by establishing a project team to initiate the needed changes for the company and its people by creating a more centralized division to deliver excellent HR services to everyone in a timely fashion at a great cost with improved standards.

A project charter is used for the project manager to begin the process in starting the project and use different objectives to get the project completed by accomplishing all the duties assigned. If a project charter is completed successfully it allows business investors to recognize the value of the company, which can be an advantage for the business to gain investments from executives. Goal statement, problem/opportunity solving statement, and business case are the important three elements out of six elements when you want your company to be successful in different aspects of not just having all the right tools, but equipment, staff, directors, media, logos, mission statement, vision statement, and many more different features play an important role in keeping the flow of your business in order. The three elements are chosen all compares together because it measures how a business will grow in the present and future in a detailed manner. As a business everyone has to have a clear understanding of knowing the reason behind projects and what they consist of in order for the project to be completed correctly with all the information requested.

As the leader of the HR services, I want to ensure all team member has a full understanding of the job and its assigned duties to have a successful future for this new centralized division. We will strive to be organized and more responsible of any possible risks that we may be faced with and most important prepared to take on any challenges with the right resources we have on hand that provided to us from the beginning. We will have a plan of action when things become questionable and hard for us to understand or explain, but with working as a team we have to all ensure we play different roles in gaining certain information to help eachother out. Communication is key to becoming successful and fixing all the previous issues but also seeking ways to not take on these hardships in the future. As a team we will all have the same mindset to guide and lead eachother in a positive manner, at times things will get frustrated but as a team we grow to become more than just that we strive to create a family, which allows us as a whole work better together to ensure the HR department is living up to its purpose. Applying the all the right information and using your resources will not only benefit the business, but all candidates to introduce more knowledge and understanding of the purpose of the move and what we want to see different as time progress. Strategic planning steps, creating a vision and mission statement, and learning about project charter are all the appropriate resources to ensure we have a designed team that’s aimed to do one thing and that's to be great again by implementing the detailed duties and responsibilities we set out to research and introduce to the company for a successful outcome. As a company, we have to be open to change and willing to take on new opportunities no matter what the situation is because at times things will become hard, but as a team, we have to all adapt to change, work together to get things done in a timely fashion, and ensure we are doing our job correctly without any open areas for failure. If a company is not open to change then that company will not grow, so it’s important to be able to adapt to the different rules and regulations that we may be faced with to get our job done successfully. Learning how to manage and by staying updated with the latest technology will ensure we get the job done without any possible risks. As a team, we have to be able to communicate, and actually, work together with different mindsets and ideas for the HR department to be unlike any other. We will strive to be better than before by providing the company with all the things they were missing out on before. I strongly believe teamwork makes the dream works and without the dream, there isn’t any work for the team to get done.
