Strategic Planning Requires Dialogue, Education

June 22, 2010 by GNN

Superintendents must be educators and communicators as part of the strategic planning process for renovations to their golf courses, including dialogue with stakeholders such as members and municipalities in which their facilities are located.

This article, written by Robin Stafford in the May/June digital edition of GreenMaster, illustrates the importance of strategic planning at the Islington Golf Club in Toronto, which is in the final stages of a multi-million renovation.

This story has qualified for consideration for the Gord Witteveen Superintendent Authored Article of the Year Award, which is presented to the superintendent or assistant superintendent whose published article is judged the best by a panel of peers.
