Product <br />We understand that the final product is a five-year comprehensive Strategic Plan for the <br />County, and we will create a Strategic Plan that DOES NOT sit on a shelf. This Plan will be used. <br />Why? Because we involve the right people and have the right preparation. We will guide a <br />facilitated community and partner engagement process that will allow the stakeholders to <br />evaluate and ultimately select Goals, Priorities, Strategies and Outcomes that the entire <br />community can use to support the County's vision for the future! <br />The County can view some examples of the Plans we create on our website <br />www.shefyltrent.com , but they all reflect the unique culture of each community; are dear, <br />understandable, and easy to read; and used as a communication tool, not just a detailed <br />document. We also understand and have experienced firsthand that the community <br />engagement process can create many other "products". Our methodology is designed to <br />produce outcomes that result in: <br />1. Trust <br />2. Understanding of the County's needs and long-term challenges <br />3. Buy in and support of the Vision for the future <br />4. Champions for the implementation moving forward <br />The stakeholders and the facilitation process build -the foundation that will lead to the successful <br />outcome: support from partners and the community for your Strategic Plan. <br />Task Two: Gather information through creative surveys, engagement tools and personal <br />interviews <br />This will help us answer two of our critical questions: Where are we now? and Where do <br />we want to be? <br />Our work will include designing a community/partner/stakeholder engagement process using <br />the following: <br />• In person meetings <br />• Short online surveys <br />• Phone calls and emails with stakeholders <br />• Design of flyers promoting the process <br />• Strong use of social media to communicate with stakeholders <br />• Postcards <br />• Sticky notes t These are two creative and innovative ways to gather feedback. <br />• White Boards J They have worked very well in other communities! <br />Sl3rand Consulting, LLC www.shMItrent.com <br />Page 5 of 11 <br />970.208.6633 <br />
