Strategic Plan

  The AIA NWP Region’s Mission and essential purpose is accomplished through the following strategies:

  1.            AIA Directors govern the Institute.  Their effectiveness is strengthened by their understanding of the issues and, in particular, how those issues affect individual components and members throughout the Region and throughout the profession.  Development of leaders with knowledge and understanding of the profession, the Institute, and the Region’s membership is paramount.

  2.            The effectiveness of a director in representing interests of components and members within a Region is to a large part due to effective communication with stakeholders.  Communication of issues, programs, and decisions being faced by the AIA Board needs to be effectively communicated to component leadership and members in order to provide the information necessary for them to be effective contributors to the issue-related dialogue.  Effective communication from the Region’s components and membership to the Directors must occur for directors to be knowledgeable on the perspectives of the members and the implications of the issues on components and members.  Effective communication among members, components and directors must be a primary focus.

Implementation Plan

The governance, programs, and activities of the Region including board meetings, regional conferences, awards programs, educational grants, newsletters, component visits and others, have historically been the means to advance toward the Region’s vision for its future.  Each entity within the Region is responsible for developing their plans for the future in ways that enhance the potential for achievement of the Region’s vision.
