Grand Lodge Strategic planning
and implementation
Charter:
The Grand Lodge Committee on Strategic Planning and
Implementation was established for the purpose of thinking ahead
to where Virginia Freemasonry is, where it is going, and what is
attainable. The Strategic Planning Committee have developed a
Strategic Plan to overcome the major issues confronting our
Fraternity today — one that will be implemented and continuously
improved as progress is made and lessons are learned — to
achieve the Mission and Vision statements of the Grand Lodge of
Virginia. The full Plan may be found by clicking
here.
In order to be
successful in this, the Grand Lodge of Virginia has defined a
strategy, known as the "Strategic Plan." It will guide major
activities throughout Virginia over the coming years. The
strategy is composed of five major objectives with supporting
goals and actions.
Objective
Number 1: Is to strengthen our Masonic cultural norm
that behavior is always to be based on Masonic values and
standards.
Objective
Number 2: Is to develop a tailored program to
strengthen the subordinate Lodges.
Objective
Number 3: Is to develop an effective membership
development program that attracts a larger number of
high-quality candidates for membership.
Objective
Number 4: Is to develop a community outreach program
to improve public understanding and appreciation of Masonic
values and contributions.
Objective
Number 5: Is to ensure that the DDGM, Grand Lodge
Committee and District Team roles and structure are optimized to
best support Grand Lodge objectives as well as district and
subordinate Lodge needs.
As we are able to
realize significant progress toward these objectives, we will
draw closer to the ultimate Vision of the Grand Lodge of
Virginia: “…to be the premier organization composed of men of
integrity and character…,” and we will keep safe the future of
our Craft so that we and our successors may continue to receive
the joys of friendship, morality and brotherly love.
