Organizational Applied Strategic Planning (OASP)
Strategic planning is worthless - unless there is first a strategic vision.
- John Naisbitt
Organizational Applied Strategic Planning and Consulting (OASP)
Organizational Applied Strategic Planning is the process by which the leadership of an organization envisions its best possible future and then creates the necessary goals, objectives, and systems to achieve that future. The end result is an action-oriented plan which guides effective, profitable, value enhancing systems and daily actions toward specific goals and objectives supportive of your organization's core values and vision. Our Organizational Applied Strategic Planning process is intended for dental associations, societies, academies, dental schools, group practices, and for-profit companies who desire a plan you will actually act upon.
Some outcomes of ASP can be as follows:
- To create a clear energizing vision and plan responsive to your organization’s needs, core values, and competencies that promotes continuity of purpose even as leadership changes. (Avoid Zig-Zag.)
- To raise the value for active involvement among all stakeholders. Special attention will be given to those segments whose participation would enhance your organization's impact and contribute to the attainment of your vision.
- To create a proactive Fiscal Plan that opens additional avenues of income, allowing your organization to strengthen income streams, control costs, and increase operational reserves. Well-executed ASP typically add at least 25% to the bottom-line EBITDA.
- To refine the recruitment, development, and alignment of your team and leadership in the context of your vison and Applied Strategic Plan. (Non-profit, volunteer organizations inadvertently become staff driven in lieu of member driven when the member leaders are not enlisted in the creation and execution of an ASP.)
- To proactively increase personal fulfillment for your increasingly diverse team.
- To invigorate and align existing departments and/or committees’ role in support of the Applied Strategic Plan.
- To create continuity of action over time regardless of changing leadership. (Prevent Zig-Zag.)
- To elevate effective communication across all levels of the organization.
- To develop a plan for the continuing innovation to support all of the above.
- To defeat competition.

Dr. Bob Frazer's Applied Strategic Planning changed my prosthodontic practice and my personal life from hopeless to hopeful. I learned specific tools from a master dentist and teacher who lives and breathes what he teaches. I was able to take the information back to my staff and use the information immediately. Since working with Bob, I sleep soundly at night, because I know the professional and personal decisions I make are right for me, my family and my team. Since taking your courses, every other speaker I hear, clinical or motivational, makes more sense. I don't leave any class feeling sad, because I don't know how I'm going to make the information I learned work for me! Since ASP, I know how to implement what I want. It has taken all of your courses and these years of practice to completely fit the entire puzzle, called life, together. Thank you!

I've taken many of the most famous courses/series, but your Applied Strategic Planning Series is the first time in 17 years of practice that all my team is enthusiastically paddling in the same direction. Together with your New Patient Experience Practicum, our acceptance of complete quality treatment is up more than 50%. We've never been more fulfilled and profitable!

I would like to tell you how much we enjoyed your workshop and our entire Texas experience! Teresa and I have already been implementing the three-appointment approach. We are all extremely excited and pleased with the responses we are getting - we feel invigorated and liberated somehow! I believe that I may have found the most inspirational information from your teachings in my six and a half years of dentistry! Dentistry doesn't seem so stressful when you're not putting pressure on people you don't know! Thanks for the experience!

I believe Applied Strategic Planning is a most valuable tool for practice development and team building. After all, I am back for a 3rd time, my 2nd with you. ASP has been an incredible tool for taking my practice from one level to the next. By working with my team to develop our personal visions and by sharing with one another, we build a foundation for creating a vision of our mutual future of choice. When such a group goes through this process of defining values and creating their vision, a very powerful sense of teamwork and mission is realized. This synergy has propelled my practice to new heights each time we have participated in the process. I cannot wait to see how quickly things change again. Thank you for creating such a great process for dentists to use in their practices.

Dr. Bob's Applied Strategic Planning Series has changed the way I live my life on a daily basis. ASP helped me to learn how to think for the future, realizing that even small daily decisions are either contributing to or taking away from my vision of the best possible life for myself. It also helped me to actually create the vision for that "best possible life" for myself - something I had not put much thought into!! It is a continual process and a revolutionary way to think and plan for a wonderful life, whatever that may be for you. I highly recommend this course if you are interested in learning how to create the life you wish to experience.

I've been on the Salmon River Adventure with Dr. Bob twice now, and would do it again! Being immersed in untouched nature and beauty was very healing for my heart and soul, and I met many new friends. The guides were amazing..always attentive to any needs. They cooked all our meals and the food was wonderful! I wasn't sure about "camping" for a week, without a real toilet or bed, but it was no problem and was very comfortable. A lovely trip that I highly recommend!!
