Transform Your Chamber’s Future with a Tailored Strategic Plan

Ensure Sustainable Growth and Member Satisfaction with Our Expert Strategic Planning Services

Is your chamber prepared for the future? A well-crafted strategic plan sets the foundation for growth, helps align your board and staff, and keeps your chamber on track to achieve its goals. Without a strategic plan, your chamber risks losing focus, underutilizing resources, and failing to meet its members' expectations.

We specialize in guiding chambers through the strategic planning process.

With 14 years of experience working with chambers of all sizes, we offer three flexible programs designed to fit your chamber’s unique needs.

Program 1: On-Site Facilitation

This program provides a streamlined approach to strategic planning, designed for chambers that need guidance but prefer to finalize their plan on their own.

  • 2 Days On-Site: Spend one day with staff to gather input and one day with your board and staff to facilitate a productive retreat.
  • Goal Setting: We'll help your board identify key goals and strategic pillars to guide the chamber’s future.
  • Planning Templates Provided: While we don’t write the final plan, we provide you with proven templates to simplify the process of crafting your own 1-page strategic plan.

Best for: Chambers looking for expert facilitation and guidance with the flexibility to complete the final plan internally.

Program 2: On-Site Facilitation with a Professionally Designed 1-Page Plan

This program includes all the benefits of Program 1, but with added support to ensure you walk away with a polished and professionally designed final plan.

  • 2 Days On-Site: One day with your staff, one day with the board and staff to facilitate the retreat and set clear goals.
  • We Write the Final Plan: We’ll take the insights and decisions from your retreat and create a concise 1-page strategic plan that’s ready for implementation.
  • Graphic Design: The final plan is professionally designed to be shared with your board, members, and the community.

Best for: Chambers that want expert facilitation and a beautifully designed plan without the burden of writing it themselves.

Program 3: Comprehensive 5-Day On-Site Planning with Full Strategic Plan

For chambers that need a deeper dive into their operations and stakeholder input, this program provides a thorough strategic planning process and a complete, ready-for-publication plan.

  • 5 Days On-Site: Includes a day with your staff, two days of stakeholder interviews, one day facilitating the board retreat, and one day leading the staff retreat. 
  • Full Strategic Plan: We’ll deliver an 18-page, fully designed strategic plan booklet that’s ready for public release.
  • Stakeholder Engagement: We conduct in-depth interviews with key stakeholders to ensure their perspectives shape the plan.
  • Professional Graphic Design: The final plan is visually engaging, making it easy to share with your members, local leaders, and the community.

Best for: Chambers looking for a comprehensive strategic planning process with stakeholder involvement and a full, graphic-designed plan ready for public consumption.

Feedback on Frank's work with chambers...

After a decade of doing things the same way, our President/CEO and myself brought in Frank Kenny for a two-day board retreat.

One of our board directors sent me this email after the retreat “All I can say is WOW & THANK YOU! The board retreat was amazing and very productive.”

We truly appreciate having an opportunity to work with someone who has the knowledge and experience necessary to guide a board like ours toward change. You are truly awesome Frank!

I had the pleasure of having Frank speak at my GACCE Executive Leadership Conference and he did a fantastic job. I highly recommend him for your next association event or chamber seminar!
