The objectives of this project were (1) to link the Forest service at all levels in a collective understanding of the opportunities, challenges and uncertainties in the internal and external operating environment that are expected to affect the Forest Service over the next 3-10 years, (2) to provide an innovative opportunity for staff to engage in conversation with Executive and each other about some of the key internal and external forces influencing the ministry, (3) to create a culture in the Forest Service where staff is able to sense change and act quickly and confidently when change is required, (4) to establish strategies that will assist the Forest Service to better plan for future business challenges, and (5) to create a ‘culture of networking’ inside and outside of the ministry that allows for continued scanning and dialogue across the Forest Service, and with our partners, as issues emerge.
