All of the following are compelling reasons for organizations to engage in a strategic planning process except:
  1. Developing a clearer awareness of how the organization “measures up” internally and externally.
  2. Engaging individuals throughout the organization in a meaningful organizational effort.
  3. Enabling employees to prepare themselves to react positively and constructively to future events.
  4. Creating or reaffirming the vision, mission, and values of the organization.
Explanation
Answer - D - The focus of strategic planning is on “proactivity,” not “reactivity.” Therefore, through strategic planning, the organization creates an opportunity for individuals at all levels of the organization to proactively shape and influence the future, rather than just react to it.

Key Takeaway: Options A, B, and C are not the best, since each one articulates a compelling reason to engage in strategic planning.
