History
• Spencer Keys (AMS President 2005-2006) developed first “Strategic Framework” for the AMS
• Enforced for one year, lost in transition, minimal by-in from students
• Caroline Wong (AMS President 2013-2014) created the Vision Taskforce
• AMS Council re-drafted Vision Taskforce to AMS 2030 Taskforce in April 2014

Purpose
• Provide a long-term macro direction for the Society post-New SUB
• Enshrine the values and vision of the Society through direct member engagement to instil a sense of ownership
• Provide structure and stability in an intransient organization without binding the hands of future Councils

Process
• AMS 2030 is not built in isolation (community-driven initiative)
• Built around multiple-overlapping strategies that correlate to the values of the organization (Access AMS, Engage AMS, Ignite AMS, Invest AMS)
• Referendum approval in 2015, ratification by undergrad societies

THE FOUR STRATEGIESAMS Strategic Planning
![Page 8: AMS 2030 – Executive Strategy Introduction to AMS Council](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062320/56649cc05503460f94987116/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The Four Strategies
• AMS Strategic Plans have been very macro, to the extent of a lack of direction
• AMS Council has a desire to delve deeper into specific issues (see values) while balancing their focus between macro and micro
• Each strategy allows for sharper focus, more detail towards implementation, and a clear direction for the Society to take
• All plans contain five goals, three sub-goals, with a supplementary recommendation on metrics and KPIs

Process

• Once at Taskforce, to be vetted, reviewed, and sent to AMS Council for ratification
• Once ratified, plan placed into the formal AMS 2030 proposal

Capacity + Challenges
