Strategic Planning and Evaluation: Prospective Analysis Methodologies
Keywords:
prospective, strategic planning, evaluation, actors strategy, decision makingAbstract
A dynamic notion of planning points towards a dynamic view of evaluation. We must therefore consider evaluation as a systematic process of collecting information and analyzing this information; support for decision-making in planning; and control and measurement of the results of the programming, in order to determine if the objectives have been achieved, is to take the evaluation as a process. Planning is a learning process, which concerns all actors, active and passive, with different logics and strategies, sometimes conflicting. Prospective methodologies contribute to this kind of stakeholder involvement / participation. The prospective methodologies, such as the Scenarios Method, incorporating qualitative and quantitative information, seek to respond to the concerns of the new concept of planning: articulation of means-ends, stakeholder action, and scenarios. Prospective strategy and planning are in practice closely linked, they are intertwined.
