    Strategic Reboot

    In times of rapid change, new contexts, community needs, resources and/or priorities may require you to adjust your strategic plan goals and timelines. A reboot is a practical, efficient approach to revisit a recent or current plan. DBD Group will work with you to refine a vision for impact, check in your current operating model, realign high-level strategies, and identify and implement any changes needed.
