CIMMYT maize program, strategic plan: 1995 and beyond
The purpose of the Maize Program strategic planning process is to provoke strategic thinking, decision making and acting - so that the Program shapes its own future rather than merely reacting to events. The process used to develop the plan entailed a series of analytic steps that pointed up the most important issues facing the Maize Program now and into the future. The Maize Program Strategic Plan draws upon and takes into account the priorities established by the CGIAR and CIMMYT's Strategic Plan (while recognizing that some of the assumptions in the CIMMYT strategic plan are now out of date). Strategic issues were identified during planning sessions held in June 1993 and involving all Maize Program staff. It is hoped that the Strategic Plan will: 1) focus Program staff on a common vision for the future; 2) serve as a guide for policy formulation and priority setting, as well as the development of operational plans, accountability systems and budget preparation; and; 3) provide a mechanism for explaining the Maize Program's current and future directions to external audiences (other CIMMYT personnel, funders, NARSs, and others).
