Communicating and Reporting

Effective communication is critical for the Council to realize success of the planning work and its resulting outcomes. As part of reaching out to clients, stakeholders and the public, the BU management will develop plans for integrating the vision, mission, and values into University’s communications (e.g., website, newsletters, presentations, annual reports). Similarly, key components of the strategic plan will be incorporated into activities undertaken by all staff in their day-today work with clients, stakeholders and the public. Strong internal communication will be strengthened through office-based discussions; feedback reports and sharing information on the action planning process either electronically or otherwise across the University. This effort will only succeed if all parts of BU are aware of the effort, help share how we implement it, and are engaged in accomplishing our goals in this current time of both difficult challenges and great opportunity.
