MPA 750: Strategic Planning in Public and Non-Profit Organizations
3
This course begins by introducing students to the evolution of several prominent planning models used by public and non-profit agencies over the past century, including comprehensive-rationality, incrementalism and advocacy planning. Specific attention is then devoted to examining theoretical issues associated with the use of a strategic planning model by public and non-profit agencies. Problems related to the implementation and evaluation of strategic plans are also discussed. All of the major theories, concepts, and methods introduced in this course will be applied either through case studies or through a class workshop with students producing and presenting a report for a real-life client.
