Course Catalog Description:
Topics on public policy or planning skills. Topics specified in Class Schedule.
Class Notes:
Visual strategy mapping is a powerful technique for graphically developing and showing the connections between mission, goals, strategies and actions. Strategy mapping is a statement-and-arrow technique in which the arrows show what leads to what. In other words, the approach involves causal mapping, in which the arrows mean "causes," "produces," or "might result in." The technique is related to logic models and theories of change, but is far more specific in showing what can be expected to lead to what - and therefore is more helpful when it comes to managing change or designing processes to do so. At the end of the course participants should be able to: articulate the basic theory of causal mapping, produce maps, and understand how to use mapping as part of a policy, organizational, or strategy change process. http://classinfo.umn.edu/?jmbryson+PA5920+Fall2023
