Post on 16-Jul-2015
The goal of this block is to be sure to have all the instruments from the
previous generation in order to arrive to the planning weekend ready to plan and manage all the possible acitivities of an LC. It includes
transition of contacts, informations, rules, pipeline, legacy and forecasted
plan.
This block is meant to create a space for reflecting with your team on tour vision, mission and purpose as a team for the next term. Building an identity and having the clarity of the WHY is
fundamental to have a successful term both personally and professionally.
The more operative part of the planning is this one in which you decide your goals, you plan your
numbers (both MoS and KPIs), you understand your driver and decide your focus. It’s the starting point of
your EB term.
Legacy 2014
Our LC Growth Path
Planning Block
Extra Activities
Consolidation & Closing
Planning time is flexible due to different LCs
realities. Some LCs could take more time for extra
activities or less time for the planning block due to the size of the LCs, number of
operations etc. Anyway suggested time to ivest is
around 8 hours. There will be time for consolidating the plan in CN1 with the
coach,
In this part you analize the plan and pipeline of your
predecessors and then you compare with Growth
Model.
Here you plan the MoS, KPIs and goals for every area (X and supporting
one) then you decide your LC Focus and undesrtand
your LC Driver.
Here you go with extra activities you would like to
run : Sus, expansions, hosting congresses, having
Ceeders and so on. Then you close and you fill the
planning tool.

Suggested duration of the session is 45 min to 1 h
The aim of the session is for the new EB to understand what was the plan that their predecessors did till Q2 of 2015. Now that you’re becoming the new EB you need to assess : fesibility of previous plan in terms of MoS and legacy that was left to you. Also it is useful to understand the current status of your LC in terms of resources : HR, money, exchanges in pipeline, extra projects, GIS implementation.
Critic analysis of the previous term from an EB perspective in order that every VPs has a clear idea of the general health of the LC. Moreover the planning is a moment in which all the Eb decides together the goal and own them as promise for their LC and AIESEC in Italy.
- Data analysis ( performances till Q4, HR in the LC, Team current allocation, Financial resources)- SWOT Analysis of the LC; (internally)- Analysis of current behaviours in the LC ( attendance of LCM, involvement in acitivites, LC culture)
Suggested duration of the session is 1h to 1h.30
The aim of the session is for the you to understand what is your growth path as an LC and what are the programmes that you want to focus the most to have your results.
Facilitate a discussion based on data to have a clear perspective on how your LC evolved and what is the expected shape of the next months.
- Forecast the Cluster Allocation of Q1;- What was the programme that grew the most in 2014?- What was the programme that brought more results in 2014? That’s your driver!- What’s the programme you would like to grow the most in 2015?
If you are a newborn LC, if you have oGCDP and iGCDP in the Rising or Potential Cluster, if the most of your HR are already allocated in GCDP, if you feel like GCDP in the programme
that is more relevant for your Local reality right now.
If you are an LC that already has GCDP programmes in Growing Cluster or more exploring GIP might be right
choice for you. Remember that choosing GIP as Focus is aligned with @Italy Focus programme and WENA
programmes.
Suggested duration of the session is 1h to 1h.30
As we said befor being the Focus programme means that you want it to grow the most during your term, because of the past analysis has the biggest potential. This requires an extra effort to the programme, but it doesn’t mean that to make it grow you have to reallocate resources from
the other programmes. The following scheme can give yo some ideas on how to behave with a Focus programme :
Be sure that you have all the tools : transition, transition for more
advanced LCs, support from NSTs, inputs from
MCs.
Be sure that you want your Focus programme to jump from of at least 2 clusters during your
term.
Do you have extra people? Do you have
extra money? Invest in your Focus programme!
Organize a Ceedership, invite other VPs to your LCs, gather inputs from your coach, work an SU
etc.
Suggested duration of the session is 1h to 1h.30
Driver is the programme that was bringing the most results in the previous term. This should underline that the prograamme is becoming mature or that the programme was the on that
worked better in your Local reality. It can happen that yur Driver and your Focus are the same, because you see the most potential in your driving programme. If your Driver is different from
the Focus :
We are suggesting a structure for every
cluster that will allow you to mantain the same
level of performances.
The driver needs to keep growing even if you don’t invest extra
resources : that’s why you need to work on the
processes.
Same amount of resources = more results!
It doens’t mean that if the area is performing
they doesn’t need resources : be sure to
provide to driver as well opportunities to
innovate and grow.
This is the Growth Model of our entity. Here you can find the suggested growth for all the
programmes in every quarter : you can use this first to
understand teh growth path that you were walking and then to plan the numbers you want to
see in the future.
Remember : you don’t have to plan exactly the numbers
suggested, if you want to stay in the same cluster you just need to
achieve the number of the previous one or, you can be brave,
and decide to plan moe to jump of two clusters in the same
quarter. Remember that this is only a suggested way, you can
customize as you wish
Contents of planning block :
oGCDP iGCDP
oGIP (if your LC runs the programme)
iGIP ( if your LC runs the programme)
TM Plan (Including HR, Recruitment and LC Structure)
MKT Plan for all the areas Financial Plan and budget
:
Do it backward : based on the previous analysis, the Growth Model, your personal ambition as a team, define
your goal for each quarter till Q4 2015.
Once you decided your final goals (oGCDP, iGCDP, oGIP, iGIP, TMP/TLP) you can move to the plan of the KPIs.
Since KPIs are changing (GIS) we are not requiring you to be superprecise, but at least to build a general idea of the
volumes of operations that you will have every month.Here the Strategic planning is finishing :D
Then it’s suggested to have an LC Timeline (and to hang it in the office ) to be aware of what should happen in
every month in the LC. And then the EB can track based on what was decided during the plan. This is the
Operative Planning and it’s fundamental to going on with all your activities.
This a suggestion on how to face the planning phase :
- Analize your Local Reality;- Open the Growth Model;- Define your LC Ambition
based on clusters (arrive in Wall Breakers in 4
Operations at the end of my term)
- Define the MoS and KPIs- Define strategies on a timeline
(all the Exchange areas and supporting ones)
- Define the LC Structure and Capacity taking inspiration
