With Girls, For Girls: Our strategic blueprint During the 2012-2013 membership year, we began a learning process to refresh the Girl Scouts of Wisconsin Southeast (GSWISE) strategic blueprint, With Girls, For Girls. The new blueprint will set the stage for continued innovation and inspiration through 2016. In the summer of 2013 a Council Strategy Team comprised of representatives of the board, volunteers, delegates, staff and the community at large researched and strategized what we have accomplished and what we need to accomplish. The team’s efforts resulted in the creation of a Winning Proposition, the piece ofthe strategic plan which clearly states our competitive advantage at GSWISE, and four Key Priorities: Winning Proposition GSWISE brings together all girls to discover the leaders within. Strategic Priorities GIRLS Engaging all girls in relevant programming that focuses on what girls want and need to thrive in a rapidly changing world. VOLUNTEERS Develop a state-of-art model of volunteerism where a diverse group of volunteers can engage easily, are offered continuous learning, and can serve in flexible ways. BRAND Generate broader visibility for the compelling mission of Girl Scouting and the transformative impact of the Girl Scout experience. COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS Build collaborative, strategic partnerships which add value to the experience girls receive and strengthen the organization. During 2014, GSWISE staff members will be working in Take Action Teams where they will be creating action plans to move these priorities forward.
