Central computing, libraries, distance education, and media production had been combined for a year when their formal planning process began--the method, classic strategic planning with broad staff participation. The goal of the process is an ongoing, vital planning process. This paper looks at the method used in planning and the process as well as local roles and issues, touching on issues of differing professional cultures and the tensions of change. | | View this resource: | |
