Short form Ministry Action Plans (MAPs) make strategy and goal-setting purposeful and concise. MAPs are vision clarification and strategy planning on a few sheets of paper and the goal is K.I.S.S.: Keep it short and simple. Short form components include:

• Step 1 – Job Description
• Step 2 – Position Guidelines (PGs)
• Step 3 – Personal Ministry Action Plan (MAP)
• Step 4 – Regular Coaching
  
  

The fourth part of short form strategy planning is a regular give-and-take discussion charting each worker’s progress toward MAP goals. A simple outline for regular coaching might include:

• Energizing Areas – What’s Working?
• Challenging Areas – What’s Not Working?
• MAP Goals Status
• Communication – How Can We Improve?
• Personal Growth Plan Status
