Strategic Learning Information

Girl Scouts of the Missouri Heartland is currently engaged in a Strategic Learning process that will set the direction for the council for the next three years. Strategic Learning is a process that was developed by Willie Pietersen, Columbia University Business School, and adopted by Girl Scouts of the USA several years ago. The key to Strategic Learning is to help build adaptive organizations ready to meet the challenges facing them and prepared to achieve their mission.

The Council Strategy Team, comprised of operational volunteers, board members, community volunteers and council staff members began their work in September 2010. They did intensive research to discover the "brutal truths" facing Girl Scouts of the Missouri Heartland and began to develop the strategy that will help the council move forward in achieving the Girl Scout mission. The work of the team was approved by the council board of directors in January 2011.

This work was introduced to the council membership at the Annual Meeting on March 26. The PowerPoint, viewable below, includes all of the elements developed thus far and highlights the areas the council will focus on over the next three years. Volunteers had an opportunity to give input into the process at the Annual Meeting. And that opportunity is on-going. Gap Teams are working to develop strategies to "close the gaps" we have identified. They are eager to have more input from the volunteers. Any input regarding Strategic Learning can be emailed to the following addresses:
