Councillor H Allen declared an interest in this item and remained present.

Reason

The corporate strategy represents the objectives and outcomes that the Council’s performance will be judged against and as such is a vital component of the Council’s performance management framework.

An understanding of performance against targets, goals and objectives will help the council understand and manage service delivery and identify emerging business risks.

A good corporate strategy is driven by a strong vision and ambitious goals which are vital for promoting the opportunities an organisation presents for investment and engagement.

The aspirational vision set out in the Big Plan gives a stronger context for the Council’s corporate strategy and for achieving our wider ambitions. It will influence the allocation and distribution of resources ensuring that the organisation commits its limited resources in accordance with its stated priorities.
