At the January 2015 Board meeting, the ARRL Board of Directors approved a process to create a new ARRL Strategic Plan.  The last strategic plan was created in 2009.

President Kay Craigie, N3KN, tasked ARRL 2nd Vice President Jim Fenstermaker, K9JF, to chair the Working Group.  Other members of this group include Dakota Division Director Greg Widin, K0GW, Vice Directors Kermit Carlson, W9XA (Central Division), Bonnie Altus, AB7ZQ (Northwestern Division), Art Zygielbaum, K0AIZ (Midwest Division), ARRL Chief Operating Officer Harold Kramer, WJ1B, and ARRL Marketing Manager Bob Inderbitzen, NQ1R.  All of the members selected to participate with this Working Group have past strategic planning experience.  Their charge is to look forward to define where the ARRL should focus its energy to insure that the future programs and services meet a changing environment and maintain the current positive aspects of the League's member base.

The Working Group has already begun this task. We request that you do not contact members of the Working Group individually so that all members of Working Group can share the information that you provide.  Comments concerning this planning effort should be forwarded to all members of the Working Group at strategicplan@arrl.org  or you can fill out the form below, which will be forwarded to the Working Group.  However, as an ARRL member, you are free to contact your Director, Vice Director, or an ARRL staff member at any time.

The first report to the board is scheduled for the July 2015 Board Meeting and a final recommendation will be made during the annual Board Meeting in January 2016.  We will continue to update this page as the plan develops.
