In today's post-secondary education environment, faced with reduced operating budgets, enrollment booms, continuing growth in research, and expectations of enhanced accountability, it is critical that a university has a comprehensive integrated planning framework. This workshop, targeted at the senior administrative teams of the provost's office, vice presidents, and academic administration, will identify how to develop and successfully implement a fully integrated planning framework within a research-intensive university. Participants will gain exposure to a range of planning models, and leave with essential knowledge for the development and implementation of an integrated planning framework within their institution. Referring to a range of models, deliverables will include understanding the scope of an integrated planning framework, key components of an integrated plan, achieving buy-in and acceptance, decision making models, implementation strategies, the importance of change management and accountability through performance measurement tools. Philip Stack is director of resource planning at the University of Alberta and has led the development and implementation of the university's integrated planning framework. He has 12 years of experience in healthcare and post-secondary education, including integrated planning, strategic planning, project management, process improvement, organizational change, facilitation, financial, and budget administration.
