Pa Environmental Rights Amendment & Responsibility for Natural Resources

Adaptive Strategies & Contingency Planning for Conservation Districts

Presented by Deb Thompson, Strategy Solutions

Ongoing disruptions have demonstrated that contingency planning is more important now than ever before.  This workshop series will examine the lessons learned, and potential opportunities for the future, as we identify issues, challenge assumptions, and develop an action plan to engage boards in scenario planning.

Session 1: Adaptive Strategies & Scenario Planning for Managers will define the parameters of contingency planning as they relate to technology, staff support, program operations, stakeholder advocacy, and fundraising.  Managers will discuss the challenges and hazards they have faced during the pandemic and beyond as well as lessons learned and challenges yet to come, and collectively develop an action list to increase awareness with their boards.

Session 2: Adaptive Strategies & Scenario Planning for Board Members will introduce the concept of scenario planning and will examine the role of the board in helping staff work through a contingency planning exercise based on the discussion from Session 1.

Session 3: Finalizing Scenario Plans: Identifying “Must Do” Strategies for Conservation Districts will allow Managers and Directors to work together in groups to identify top-priority strategies and share ideas and best practices for implementation.
