Examining your current situation, proposing a new situation, and evaluating the gaps
between the two, is central to the strategic planning process. Use Demand Metric's
GAP Analysis Tool to document gaps in areas that need to be core competencies.
Action Plan:
1. Identify Target Items - use Demand Metric's GAP Analysis Tool (Advanced)
to identify target items that can be improved. Ensure that your target is
aligned with senior management's goals & objectives to ensure you will be
supported.
2. Document Current & Goal State - determine your current state of maturity
and propose a new situation for the future. Establish a timeline for resolving
the GAP that is realistic, given organizational resources and priority level.
3. Define Action Items - work backwards from the goal-state to identify which
actions need to be taken in order to achieve your objective. Initiate projects
or delegate tasks that are required to move the organization forward.
