What is Operational Planning about?
An Operational Plan is a highly detailed plan that provides a clear picture of how a team, or a department will contribute to the achievement of the organisation's goals. The operational plan maps out the day-to-day tasks required to run a business. This course looks at the levels of organisational planning, benefits of planning and the task of determining the specific purpose of a unit in order to achieve the vision and mission of the organisation.
Once the purpose of a unit has been defined, the next step is to develop operational strategies. Operational strategies refer to the methods that units/departments use to reach the objectives of the organisation. By developing operational strategies, a department/unit can examine and implement effective and efficient systems for using resources, personnel and the work process.
