Workshop


Chapter 5 – Purpose

• Purpose of Goal-Setting Workshop: engage stakeholders in setting 25-year goals that will guide the installation toward sustainability and creating a sense of ownership by the core teams responsible for these goals

• Purpose of Chapter 5: describe the preparation, management, and follow-up for the goal-setting workshop


Why 25 year goals?


The Goal-Setting Workshop

• Facilitated WORKshop, 2 1/2 days• Day 1 is an executive session to energize

senior stakeholders on and off post• Core Teams use the Baseline to develop

initial long-range (25-year) goals• Participants and GC select goals that

comprise the vision for installation’s future

• Command Group out-briefed on final goals and assigned core teams

“In order to sustain our mission over the long haul, we must examine and redesign our activities with respect to the "triple bottom line" of sustainability … we must redesign our actions and operations to simultaneously optimize our mission, community well-being, and the natural environment.”

Col John M. KiddFeb 05

Vision: A Sustainable FS/HAAF


Infrastructure and O&M Challenge(Fort Stewart Summit Feb 05)

Fort Stewart/Hunter Army Airfield (FS/HAAF) provides, operates, and maintains facilities and infrastructure necessary to support joint/combined training, power projection, and the well being of our soldiers and community.

How can FS/HAAF’s mixture of new and aged infrastructure meet the demands of an expanding mission, increasing population, and transformation, while reducing overall costs and environmental impacts, enhancing quality of life, and maintaining strong community relations?


The Path to Installation Sustainability

During the Conference

• Manage the process

• Capture Deliverables

DoD/Army Intensive User of Land and Airspace

• So …. Army installation sustainability planning is organized around the long-term mission– Military Training– Infrastructure – Transportation– Procurement– Regional Interaction

• What is that traditional training mission and how is it changing?


Who were some of the first to set 25 year installation goals?


The Army competes for airspace to train and not just locally

Creating Installation Sustainability Goals

• Facilitated Breakout Groups • Build trust quickly through humor

and sincerity• Process focuses on good, not

perfect • The right questions at the right time:

– Group identifies significant issues for their area

– Group brainstorms/dreams end-states of what installation looks like when issues resolved

• The right process: Think – Write -Talk

• Everyone writes: 5-7 word bullets• Posted for all to see groupings of

ideas• Recorder captures deliverables for

plenary briefings and voting

BG Schwitters, CG Fort Jackson Selects Final Goals after participants vote with dots


Final Strategic Goal – Training Lands

Goal: Establish/sustain current and future DOD/multi-service training and deployment hub while enhancing ecosystem integrity

Objectives:• Train and deploy regional knowledge-based military• Coordinate across services • No net loss of training lands (compatible land use inside fence)• Multi-use management • Improve/expand FS tank trails to enhance access, reduce siltation• Minimize noise impacts• Coordinate, plan, integrate applicable statutory requirements• Enhance ecosystem integrity

Timeframe: 2030


Post-Conference

• Publicity

• After-Action Reports (AAR)

• Post-conference briefings

• Schedule the Targets and Objectives Workshop

A Facilitator/Recorder Team Reflecting on the workshop


Bottom Line

This is a key step in the strategic planning process. This workshop should produce…

• A set of 25-year goals• Each goal assigned to a Core Team and

Documented in an After Action Report (AAR)

• A schedule for the next step (D) in the process
