The creation of this plan began in spring 2021 and engaged the entire A&S community faculty, staff, students, alumni and external community members through a series of focus groups, surveys, town hall meetings, and individual stakeholder interviews. Leadership included a 12-person steering committee and four working groups composed of Arts & Sciences faculty and staff.  A 2020 survey of faculty, "Evaluating Faculty Excellence," produced a detailed report on research capabilities, and this served as a basis for the work of the steering committee.  Departmental SWOT analyses and strategic plans were reviewed when available. In addition, an extensive landscape analysis and data assessment were conducted  An external partner, the Huron Consulting Group, assisted in outlining our five-phased approach as well as in research and analysis.    After launch, the implementation of the strategic plan will include opportunities for ongoing engagement, feedback, and submission of proposals for new initiatives. This is a living document, and as we navigate the next decade together, the strategic plan will continue to integrate, reflect, and respond to the needs and desires of the entire Arts & Sciences community at Washington University in St. Louis.    Detailed TimelinePhase I: Project Initiation, March 2021The purpose of Phase I was to confirm a structured, meaningful, and informed framework for the strategic planning process. To initiate the project, the project team conducted a kickoff meeting with the Steering Committee to confirm a communication plan, project schedule, and stakeholder engagement approach. Phase II: Build a Shared Understanding, April & May 2021The primary objective of Phase II was to build an effective shared understanding of A&S and its market context. This was built on analysis of internal data, external market trends, and a robust understanding of A&S’s diverse stakeholders through a survey broadly accessibly by A&S stakeholders, in-depth interviews with key thought leaders in A&S and at the University, and a series of focus groups that surfaced and delved into topical issues.Phase III: Develop and Prioritize Strategic Options, June & July 2021Phase III identified a set of specific strategic options and a framework that guided the prioritization of these options, in alignment with the vision and mission of the College and the University. We also recommitted to the College’s mission and aligned its vision and organizational values.Phase IV: Draft Strategic Plan Document, August & September 2021After collaboration with the Steering Committee to prioritize strategic options, the project team designed a process for iterating the plan document. Several Steering Committee leaders members drafted the document.Phase V: Review and Confirm Final Strategic Plan, October & November 2021The Steering Committee addressed the relevant feedback garnered from the community and built consensus toward the final draft of the strategic plan.
