Issues facing the needs of a community
A community is made up of individuals with different needs, interests and lifestyles. Some needs, however, are common to all: sanitation, fresh air, clean water, open space for recreation, access to services, and so on. Some form of overall planning is necessary to make sure these basic needs are met and community resources are used effectively and equitably.#p#分页标题#e#

The Importance of Planning
Any of the factors identified in the PEST analysis article (see link at bottom of page) could impact upon your business and need to be incorporated into the business planning process. The best businesses see business planning as a continuous activity setting both long-term and short-term goals and objectives. Both are important, as is regular monitoring to determine if goals and objectives are being met. At regular intervals it might be helpful to write down the results of that planning process into a business plan. This will give you a defined course of action for the business.
Where a business is on top of its planning, it becomes a very straightforward process to summarise the different elements into a written plan for a third party such as a bank. In the same way that a balance sheet gives a snapshot of the current financial position, a business plan should give a snapshot of the planning process.

Effective planning allows you to be more pro-active and less reactive - to concentrate more on fire prevention than on fire fighting.
使规划更有效的七大步骤-Seven steps to effective planning
As with everything, it helps to take a step by step approach. The following list identifies the steps necessary to effective planning:
Vision - what do you want to achieve? Where does this fit into the 'big picture'?
Inventory - assess the situation. What might help or hinder your efforts?
Challenge - accept the challenge and define and set realistic goals. Without goals, things drift.
Timetable - work out a definite programme, including a plan of action, complete with deadlines.
Overheads - estimate the cost of your budget, in terms not just of cash but also of time and materials.
Roll it out - implement the plan and commit to the achievement of the goals.
You are there - but remember to keep checking how far you have travelled down the route to your goals.
战略规划-Strategic planning
Strategic planning is the process through which an organization defines its strategy, direction as well as makes decisions to allocate its resources. On the other hand, Operational planning is a subset of strategic work plan. It defines the short term methods of achieving the strategic objectives set while strategic planning is done.
Strategic planning is proactive in nature and spans over a long time periods usually 10 years or so. On the other hand, operational planning is also proactive but changes are made to it depending on the current requirements. They are relative short term in nature, spanning a time period of 1-3 years.
Strategic planning is the formal planning for the future course and defines the following:
- What do we do?
- For whom we do it?
- How do we succeed?
First Stage of Strategic Planning may involve:à Futures Thinking
Thinking about what the business might need to do 10-20 years ahead Strategic Intents
Thinking about key strategic themes that will inform decision making
"The thicker the planning document, the more useless it will be"
The Vision
Communicating to all staff where the organisation is going and where
#p#分页标题#e#
it intends to be in the future
Allows the firm to set goals
Operational planning
On the other hand, operational planning defines the following:
- Where are we now?
- Where do we want to be?
- How do we get there?
- How do we measure our progress?
Strategic Plan Process
Strategic planning is creating a vision of the future and managing toward that pectancy. It's operating under a mission statement umbrella that focuses the organization's effort. It's an effective process for aligning your short-term decisions with your long-term goals.
Strategic planning answers the three big questions:
Where are we today?
Where do we want to be in the future?
What should we be focused on today, in order to make it more likely we will be where we want to be in the future?
It is a simple process with an incredible power to energize your organization and bridge the gap between long-term vision and day-to-day tactics. Having answered the big three questions the team than creates action plans that start them moving in that direction - now! Now means today, this week, this month, and this quarter.
The team planning process is as valuable as the plan it produces. (Some argue even more important.) Once in a while a CEO will try to save their company time and effort by sitting down and creating a vision, mission, strategy, and set of goals. Such plans are usually pretty good, after all the CEO is intelligent and highly intuitive. As an alternative, the CEO sometimes hires a consulting firm to develop a plan. The hard truth is that the best plan is one that actually gets implemented. That is why a plan developed by the implementation team will always beat a plan imposed on the implementation team. If you are in the midst of a short term crisis such as an all out push to get a new product out the door you should wait until every member of the planning team won't be distracted during the two day process.
On the other hand if you are in a protracted crisis - months and months - then the planning meeting is an excellent opportunity to take a few steps back and triage the situation. Perhaps the only way out of crisis mode is to invest in changing the status quo through an upgrade of the infrastructure, entering a new market, creating a new product, developing a competitive strategy, replacing a team member in over their head, increasing the equity base, getting out of legacy products, markets, customers, or people. Â #p#分页标题#e#
Time is short and resources typically limited when you're in crisis. You get fewer chances to get it right. It is important to reestablish what the vision, mission, strategy is so you not only solve today's problems but start building long-term value.
Strategic planning is not about predicting the future, reading crystal balls, or calling some psychic hotline. Strategic planning is asking the people who's actions will create the future what they want that future to be.  Where do you want to be in five years?
Not where do you think you'll be.
Not where do you forecast you'll be.
Where do you want to be.
Perhaps no one has ever asked the question before? Once the team identifies where they want to be they ask the next big question. What has to change in order for us to get there? Those changes are articulated as a small set of strategic goals with implementation plans that start immediately. While we talk about where we want to be in three to five years the focus on the plan is on what we are going to do during the next 1 - 12 months to get us there.
Goal and objective of planning
Survival

Growth
SURVIVAL
Survival planning is nothing more than realizing something could happen that would put you in a survival situation and, with that in mind, taking steps to increase your chances of survival. Thus, survival planning means preparation.
BREAK-EVEN
Break-even analysis is a technique widely used by production management and management accountants. It is based on categorising production costs between those which are "variable" (costs that change when the production output changes) and those that are "fixed" (costs not directly related to the volume of production).
Total variable and fixed costs are compared with sales revenue in order to determine the level of sales volume, sales value or production at which the business makes neither a profit nor a loss (the "break-even point").
Profit = TR - TC ( TOTAL REVENUE -TOTAL COST )
MAKE A PROFIT 盈利
It has yet to make a profit, but that, says co-founder Arthur Maxfield, has never been the main driver for the West Sussex business. Its raison d'être, he says, has always been to provide a revenue stream for charities and to recycle unwanted books rather than see them sent to landfill.#p#分页标题#e#
MAXIMISE PROFIT 利润最大化
In economics, profit maximisation is the process by which a firm determines the price and output level that returns the greatest profit. There are several approaches to this problem. The total revenue-total cost method relies on the fact that profit equals revenue minus cost, and the marginal revenue-marginal cost method is based on the fact that total profit in a perfectly competitive market reaches its maximum point where marginal revenue equals marginal cost.
