Your work plan is a detailed narrative outlining
exactly how you plan to implement your strategic
plan annually. Although the strategic plan will have
three to five years focus, you will need to develop
and submit work plans annually. The work plan is a
key component of your annual responsibility to the
board and the organisations internal project-management process. The work plan is the tool you will use
to communicate to your board how you will execute
the strategic plan and the money (budget) required
to achieve it. It is also an excellent tool for internally
planning and managing your organisations activities.

As soon as the work plan is approved by the board,
it is the task of the executive director to ensure that
individual staff members are assigned to tasks on
the work plan and that they clearly understand their
roles and responsibilities. An individual performance
objective which will serve as the basis for performance management of each staff members will be
developed and agreed.
