Abstract
Using an action research method to study the vision-based strategic planning processes of four nonprofit human service organizations, the author identifies factors that influence the successful initiation of the planning process, the formulation of a vision-based plan, and the use of the plan to guide organizational performance. The author identifies transformational leadership and an organizational commitment to cultural change as important to the mobilization of these success factors and to the subsequent achievement of viable vision-based strategic plans.
