In addition to the strategic plan, what other plan must WFI develop outlining how the state will implement the plan?

• A. Operation plan outlining how the state will implement the plan
• B. Annual budget
• C. Public relations plan
• D. Training curriculum

Answer: (A)

Translating strategic goals into action requires an operation plan that maps out how the state will carry out the strategy. It details concrete programs and steps, who is responsible for each task, the sequence and timing, the resources needed, and the milestones and metrics to track progress. This makes the strategy actionable and ensures coordinated effort across departments.

An annual budget outlines funding levels, which support implementation but doesn’t specify the step-by-step path to achieve the goals. A public relations plan focuses on messaging and stakeholder communication, while a training curriculum targets building workforce capabilities. None of these alone describes the concrete, coordinated plan of action needed to implement the strategic plan.
