People usually get together and form a community group because they have a united passion. St-wise has worked with a variety of community groups and organisations to develop
strategic business plans that identify objectives, a common vision, future opportunities and a clear action plan. Our most recent project was working with an emergency relief organisation to develop a plan to guide the Committee of Management's future actions.

Visioning workshops are often part of the strategic planning process, however, can be useful as a starting point
to bring together all stakeholders to agree upon common objectives or just to get groups that are not united back on track. St-wise uses stimulated, thought provoking activities to encourage workshop participants to agree upon a vision that is short, sharp and worth achieving. Other outcomes from visioning workshops include identification of current relationships with key partners. The information gathered can assist to identify where relationships need to be strengthened to encourage future growth.
Networking provides groups with similar interests to share ideas and learn from each other. St-Wise has worked with local government to develop a community group
network. The network represents 16 individual groups meeting on a quarterly basis to network and share ideas.
