The Strategic Management Process

In order to accomplish goals, one must commit to their success and have faith that the outcome is always beneficial. To be able to maintain faith that your outcomes are always beneficial, one must simply trust in the Lord. According to Psalm 111:3-4, “Everything he does reveals his glory and majesty.

Life will cause many interruptions, but prayer and faith will handle any obstacle. Although, I have just implemented my strategic plan, I feel so thrilled to acknowledge it at a young age. I see so many troubled people in my cohort, but I feel that my journey will allow me to educate them and strengthened their mind frames. My strategic plan only serves as the foundation to my success, but through hard work and dedication I trust God will allow me the space to grow into a humble Level Three Leader.
