ENGSO Development Group (EDG)
5th Newsletter, February 2007
ENGSO Developmenet Group task almost fulfilled
Based on a thorough evaluation of ENGSO today and taking into account the needs
and
wishes of ENGSO members, as well as paying attention to the input from relevant
stakeholders in Europe, the ENGSO Strategic Plan (2007-2011) will be presented
to the
ExCom by the ENGSO Development Group in the end of February 2007.The Plan is to
be
presented by the ExCom to the ENGSO members at the General Assembly in May 2007.
An important step taken in the process leading up to the final product was the
Reference
Group Meeting in Bratislava from 2-4 February. During this two days'meeting
representatives
of almost 20 ENGSO me mbers participated in fruitful plenary and group
discussions, tackling
various issues.
Highlights of the draft Strategic Plan
Below is a very short and condensed summary of the suggestions found in the
draft Strategic
Plan, as also discussed with the Reference Group earlier this month:
The new ENGSO vision is to be the voice of organised sport in
Europe.
The new ENGSO mission is to promote the interests of sport in
Europe.
The four ENGSO activity areas (2007-2011) are:
1. Influence the sports political agenda by outlining and implementing a
strategic
approach for acting within the sports political field
2. Upgrade and consolidate the ENGSO internal organisation
3. Develop clear and effective profile and communication methods
4. Identify and obtain new organisational resources
To strengthen the role of ENGSO and to facilitate the future tasks identified in
the strategic
plan, it is also necessary to make changes to the organisation (structure, human
resources) and
its working methods.
Important next steps
At February the 28th 2007 the EDG will submit the proposed Strategic plan to the
Executive
Committee. The ENGSO secretariat will distribute the plan to ENGSO members in
March, as part of the General Assembly documents. Finally we look forward
to an
interesting and active General Assembly in Helsinki the 4-5th of May 2007.
