TAKE THE SURVEY

 

LES started work on a new strategic planning effort that will establish a dynamic direction for the utility. The desired product — the LES Strategic Plan — will provide a clear and organized view of big-picture outcomes that the organization will work to accomplish, through a cohesive and well-connected picture of short-, medium-, and long-term directives, initiatives, programs and projects.

The plan will allow our utility to fulfill the community’s and our Administrative Board’s strong desire for a well-defined strategic direction, with a focus on aligning Key Performance Indicators, or KPIs, and metrics with broader strategies. It will also integrate with LES’ financial plan and performance metrics to ensure consistency and alignment across all functions.
