When building a new faculty development program, communicating your vision and soliciting support from organizational leadership and faculty can be a struggle.
A strategic plan is a blueprint for challenging assumptions and promoting change within existing structures. It’s a tool that, when properly leveraged, can help you acquire the buy-in you need to develop new programs.
