STRATEGIC PLANNING IN NON PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS. Participative guide based on values - Strategic planning has become something vital in organizations. Should we use the same focus, style and tools to plan in a non-profit entity as we do in any other organization? Does it have the same usefulness? How should we do it? Who should participate? Who can help us? How should our organization reflect to know the path that we should take? How can we be stronger in the organization to be able to respond to the demands of the context? In this participative Guide based on values, good methodological proposals are offered for undertaking value based strategic planning. Nothing in a non-profit organization has sense if it is not according to its values.
