Private School Strategic Planning

Would You Like To Flip A Switch And Accomplish More Of What Makes An Exceptional School In The Next 12-Months Than In The Previous 12 Years?

Working with me, I can help to develop a Strategic Plan for your School that will build consensus and motivate support, define critical priorities, and move your school from "Good" to "Outstanding."

Dear Fellow Educator and Friend,

I’m on a mission. You see, I want to be the strategic planning consultant known for providing solutions to leaders of Independent and Private Schools that helps them to maximize their organization’s potential through a strategic plan. One of the critical keys to reaching your potential as outstanding school is to develop and implement an effective strategic planning process that lays out the stepping stones and the foundation to maximize your school’s operations and management.

For me this is not such a far fetched, pie in the sky ambition, because I’ve done it for other schools that I’ve help lead and consult with. I’m energized by the importance of my one of a kind strategic planning system, “Results Optimization.” But it’s not just any plan, it’s the one that I’ve perfected.

Discover A Tested, Proven Strategic Planning System That Produces Dramatic and Measurable Results

Simply put, a school undertakes strategic planning to reaffirm or adjust its mission – why it exists, what its purpose is, and what it does now– and to agree on its vision – what it wants to be and do in the coming years. The purpose is not to decide what should be done in the future but to decide what should be done right now to make you the best private school. Ask yourself, is your current strategic plan doing that?

What If the Only Thing Preventing You from Becoming an Outstanding School is NOT Having the Right Strategic Plan in Place

The real value of my Strategic Planning system is more than simply having a blueprint that guides future decisions -- which is incredibly valuable on its own. It’s also my powerfully comprehensive approach to building consensus and motivating support, defining critical priorities for your Board and Head of School who are charged with the implementation of the plan, and focusing all your energies in one agreed upon direction. Not ready, shoot, AIM. Is this happening at your school?

What Others Say

"Throughout the development of the Plan, Mr. Halladay was consistentlyy professional in his dealings with staff and parents. He established a respectful relationship with the parent members of the focus groups and the Planning Committee, and ensured that each stakeholder group felt their comments heard. He is also very organized and punctual, and consistently delivered data and drafts according to the established shedule. His strengths lie in delegating and drawing on the abilities and skill sets of the people in the organization, both of which result in the content of the Plan coming authentically from the participants."

Nigel Turner, Board Chair, Greybrook Academy

"Mr. Halladay has been instrumental in establishing a number of key programs and policies...In the time that Mr. Halladay has been at WPGA, he has made a significant impact on the school. He has quickly been able to determine areas in which the school needs to focus on, while being able to encourage stakeholders to buy in."

J. Beames, Fmr. Board Chair, West Point Grey Academy

"I have been impressed with Mr. Halladay's ability to lead and managea variety of projects, which have highlighted his outstnding organizational, communication, and interpersonal skills...One project in particular illustrated his ability to effectively co-ordinate a variety of educational partners, including industry, business, post secondary , and community organizations.

Sam Lim, Assistant Deputy Minister, BC Ministry of Education

"Doug worked very well with all Governors on the Board and was excellent at developing effective relationships with each Governor. He kept the board well informed and was instrumental in developing and implementing the strategic plan that is in place today"

Sally Leigh Spencer, Board Chair, Queen Margaret's School

"With vision and leadership, Doug quickly evolved a strategic plan in collaboration with the school's board. The plan reaffirmed the long history of Queen Margaret's as a fine girls' preparatory school but created a new emphasis on the education of the whole student: scholastics, the arts, athletics and citizenship. The strategic plan also addressed the school's finances and upon the basis of related business models, a whole new approach to setting tuition fees was evolved."

Mark Moore, Business Manager, Queen Margaret's School
