    20102014

    PVCHR has already been in existence for thirteen years, and for all those years, the organization has steadily grownin size, in depth and in breadth together with its mass base. It has likewise gained recognition by regional andinternational organizations in the field of peace and human rights. This is now a new phase for the organization, gearingfor a new leap forward by taking decisive steps on the OD process with change management and targeting theimplementation of a five-year strategic plan.

    The management of PVCHR took on a daring and optimistic option on its SWOT analysis. They chose thecombination of S/O (strengths and opportunities) as their guide in the formulation of a five-year strategic plan. This

    option is such a challenging one as it would take on the tasks of expansion, integration, intensification and acquisition.Expansion would mean, broadening their mass base and reach inclusive of learning from the experience and developingthem as model villages and blocks. The integration component would mean merging, harmonizing and complementingprograms, projects and similar concerns to make the work more focus, concentrated, cost benefit and can create greaterimpact. Intensification would cover raising the current work at a different level, achieving a level of intensity and scalewith daringness and boldness. Acquisition would require the organization to gain new knowledge, skills and experience,and reaching out to new resources to achieve the targets in the strategic plan.

    For PVCHR, the S/O combination provides all the positive conditions and elements internally and externally to makethe organization ready to take on the greater challenges that are in store to achieve its desired goal for five years. Utilizing

    the strengths and opportunities at hand, the organization would be in the best position to manage its weaknesses andpossible threats that could provide the hindering factors towards the achievement of its goal.

    The greatest strength of the organization is its human resource that are fully committed and embracing theorganizations vision, mission and goals. It has established partnerhips and networks at varying levels, from local tointernational. It has organized, model villages and blocks and strong advocacy for human rights and justice for the women,children and Dalits people. Opportunity wise, various funding organizations are looking forward for greater collaborationand cooperation with PVCHR.

    Right to Left Planning

    Normally, strategic planning can take the

    top-down or bottom-up approach. But PVCHR tookon the process of right to left planning in itsstrategic planning process. This process follows thedictum of always begin with the end in mind. Asalways, the end in mind is the vision, mission, andgoals of the organization. On the basis of the vision, mission, goals, clear objectives are set,followed by the key results areas. Based on the keyresult areas, performance indicators orperformance outcomes are formulated followed by

    the action program.

    From the vision, mission and goals, objectives are set which are measurable end results that usually cover expandingthe reach, increasing resources, satisfying clientele for quality services and providing reasonable compensation and benefitsfor the organizations staff. The key result areas on the other hand are the manifestations or proofs that the set objectives

    are being achieved. The performance indicators or performance outcomes are the exact quantification of the key resultareas which is an evaluation of the results or a by-product of carrying out the strategies to achieve the objectives.

    Within the five-year period, PVCHR will establish its position as a reputable human rights organizationcontributing to poverty alleviation and sustainable development of its model villages and blocks.

    The five-year strategic plan integrates the internal goal of the organization to develop into a more professionalized

    and dynamic organization. The leadership and management of the organization realized the significance ofprofessionalizing the whole organization and its conduct of work by journeying in an OD process towards changemanagement. This is a one great leap forward, steering the organization in a dynamic way, making it more vibrant andactive.

    It will sustain its position achieved as a reputable human rights organization demonstrating its contribution inalleviating its covered communities from poverty and realizing sustainable development.

    Fleshing out the activities and assigned tasks after the action program are undertaken with the staff in aparticipatory process and approaches.

    The performance indicators/performance outcomes can still be fleshed out in greater detail in a time frame, e.g.,first year (2010); after two years (2012); and after the strategic plan period (2014). Such is important in order to trackdown the performance targets towards achieving the desired goal for the period.

    These performance indicator targets can also be adjusted on the basis of an assessment on an annual basis or afterthe mid-term implementation of the strategic plan.
