Out of the Trenches

But why?

Organizations in which leadership makes time for the long view are 
better equipped to plan and budget for change. It's hard to take a few hours out of each week to explore online, read trade publications or participate in a webinar when you're struggling to make a deadline, update the website copy or put together materials for a donor. But taking the long view helps you avoid working reactively. It becomes easier to set objectives, plan, delegate and prioritize when you're more clear about where you're heading.
