Ready to lead your organization into the future?
The Laramie County Library, in partnership with the Laramie County Community Partnership and the Wyoming Nonprofit Network, is excited to support Facilitating an Effective Strategic Planning Session, a learning opportunity offered by the American Management Association.
Ideally for organizational leaders of small to medium-sized nonprofits, this hands-on training will equip participants with the tools, confidence, and structure needed to lead an internal strategic planning process successfully.
What You Will Gain:

What Is Included:
- Pre-Learning Component: Distributed by the American Management Association, participants will receive a link to a self-evaluation approximately two weeks prior to the in-person learning event. The evaluation should take 30 to 45 minutes to complete and will provide the facilitator with information needed to ensure the training meets the needs of participants.

Lunch and light refreshments for the in-person portion of the training will be provided.
- Post-Training Virtual Meeting: On Wednesday, October 22, 2025, from 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., participants are required to attend a one-hour post-training virtual meeting to share additional insights and to support the Wyoming Nonprofit Network in developing related learning opportunities for 2026.
