Goals

Goal Statements

Taken together, the three Goals in The Unity Environmental University Strategic Plan outline an interrelated plan to place service to the audiences who need Unity products, programs, and services at the very center of the work. Objectives operationalize the vision provided in the three Goal statements. Each Initiative selected for implementation under an Objective will be executed using the Initiative Implementation Plan.

Goal One (Audiences) is the heart of The Unity Environmental University Strategic Plan. The other two Goals are designed around it. Goal One embraces the audience-first approach endorsed by University leadership in the Decision-Making Paradigm and Glossary (see Decision-Making Paradigm and Glossary in Unity College 2025 Tools for Planning and Strategic Plan Implementation).

Goal Two (Enterprise) is focused on institutionalizing a flexible approach to innovation, planning, and project implementation, as well as completing the Enterprise buildout begun during the last strategic plan as the operational foundation for service to the audiences identified in Goal One.

Goal Three (Storytelling) outlines an institutional commitment to interactive co-creation of the University, its interwoven stories of audience, community, and individuality, and of what it means to be a small, private University. Storytelling in The Unity Environmental University Strategic Plan is a primary means of embracing a more socially-responsive and responsible approach to higher education.
