Visual Overseer's strategic planning wizard guides you through the steps of creating and monitoring effective strategies.

Visual Overseer - Strategic Planning

Strategic planning can be intimidating. It sounds cold and calculating – something for businesses but not for God’s church. But it doesn’t have to be that way. God-centered strategies can help you be more effective in using the resources with which God has blessed your church. With Visual Overseer’s strategic planning wizard, you can create strategies based on your vision statement, or strategies for events such as an outreach event.

In Visual Overseer, our strategic planning wizard helps you create S.M.A.R.T. goals, and the plans to help you realize those goals.

Visual Overseer is designed to take you through the steps of creating effective strategic goals and strategic plans. Our process is intuitive, and easy to use, yet is deceptively powerful. Imagine having a full set of strategic goals and strategic plans which takes your vision from the paper to the pavement. Imagine the encouragement your church will feel as they see the vision turn into action. Imagine the excitement as your current reality begins to look like the picture your vision statement paints. It is God’s vision and His good work, but He desires to partner with you, and our vision is that Visual Overseer helps you succeed in this area where so many leaders fail.

In addition to creating goals around a vision statement, our strategic planning features support events such as Easter celebration, Christmas services, or whatever you want to plan for. Visual Overseer can help you plan events, ministries, short-term goals, and long-term goals.

For each S.M.A.R.T. goal you create, your next step is to associate plans to accomplish those goals. Our strategic planning wizard has a rich set of existing plans which you can add to your goals by simply clicking on them.

But Visual Overseer doesn’t stop there. At the push of a button you can ask Visual Overseer to send status request emails to those responsible for the goals. Responses are automatically collected and displayed for you so you can see how a strategic plan is doing at a glance.
