Strategic Planning & Club Governance
Club Leaders Forum delivers a custom approach to Club Governance and Strategic Planning. This is accomplished through a series of site visits and interviews with senior management, governors and past officers of the Club, to gain an in-depth understanding of club culture, and past and present operations and challenges.
The philosophy of excellence in Strategic Planning involves Club Leadership, Members, Management and Staff. During the process the local market is studied, national trends and the demographic compilation of the membership considered. Strategic Plans do not include “boiler plate” content and each plan is delivered in long form and in an Executive Summary. Direction in Club Governance is tailored to the current structure of the Club, modified with the introduction to “Best Practices” in Club Governance relevant to today’s finest Private Clubs.
