Today in class, we went over our blog, e-portfolio, and research project assignments.
We also talked about "Mission vs Vision" principles.
Mission
-Talks about the present
-List broad goals upon which the organization is formed
Vision:
-Talks about the future
-Where does the organization want to be
In most projects that we take on, planning is a very important function of management. Because, I am in the planning program at the University of Waterloo, I understand what needs to be done in order to accomplish something. When you plan to take on a project, goals and steps have to be set up early in advance to make sure you are on topic. If you are in a group with other members, it is important to set up a time table for completion of tasks to make sure everyone stays on track.
Our class also analyzed the different types of plans:
-short, intermediate and long-range plans
-strategic & operational plans
-single-use and standing-use plans
-contingency & crisis planning
