Purpose

The intent of this session is to give the team some practice in using "tools" for analyzing their partnership's internal environment. This unit continues and deepens the focus of the day on the internal environment of the partnership. The analysis generated in this unit is intended to yield an understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of the partnership so that its ATODA planning efforts can build on the former and strengthen the latter.

Planning efforts that do not take into account the specific and concrete strengths and needs of the partnership itself may be thwarted or stalled. This session encourages teams to begin or continue a planning process built on the partnership's strengths.

Linkages with Preceding and Following Sessions

In previous sessions, participants learned about planning in general and about some tools they might use for internal analysis. This session encourages them to consider specifically how their partnership might take stock of itself and how this analysis fits with their vision of an effective partnership. The strengths and needs of the partnership identified in this session should be tied to the sessions on analyzing the external environment, overall planning, and developing the teams' reentry plans.
