Strategic Plan
In 2017, Marburn’s Board of Trustees adopted a four-year strategic plan entitled Framework for the Future.
The plan’s four pillars include: • Optimize the Student Profile (Read more on next page.) • Provide Innovation and Leadership to the Industry • Expand Community Connections and Outreach • Create Long-term Organizational Sustainability
In the past few years, each of these pillars has been reviewed, expanded, clarified, assigned, and addressed. While some of the initiatives are ongoing, it is gratifying to see each of these goals and objectives being adopted into Marburn’s organizational playbook and becoming a critical resource used in decision-making and informing directional growth.
In late 2020, a board committee began the process of engaging the next Strategic Planning partner to help set priorities, focus energy and resources, and ensure stakeholders are working toward common goals in Marburn’s next chapter.
After wading through many proposals submitted in response to a Request For Proposal (RFP), Marburn chose Mission Matters Group to help outline and craft the school’s next strategic plan.
Joe Olwig and Shaun Lee of Mission Matters Group, located in Wildwood, Missouri, were selected as a natural fit for the Marburn community.
“They were the right choice for us,” said Head of School, Eldrich Carr. “They are committed to unlocking the potential of the clients they serve—helping to create a clear and compelling vision and developing an operating system to gain traction to reinforce and nurture a healthy work culture. They approach their work putting people first, which resonated with us”.
All stakeholders will be afforded an opportunity to weigh in and have their voices heard as part of the strategic planning process. The draft plan, which is to be adopted at the beginning of the 2022-2023 school year, will be released in the spring of 2022.
