Strategic plans establish specific mission goals to meet the needs of stakeholders and fulfill legislative and executive mandates. The Strategic Plan defines the results that are expected to be achieved in a 5-year period and defines measures that enable the organization to manage program performance to achieve those results. Annual plans, which are integrated in the Performance Budget, define the annual incremental progress necessary to achieve the 5-year goals. Performance management then is the act of planning, developing, monitoring, and evaluating employee, program, and organizational performance in the context of the Strategic Plan.
