how can i create a 5 years plan, im a student.

I would like to use a SWOT analysis in developing your strategic plan. If you havent already, I would ask you to set a career goal for yourself. i.e. within 5 years I want to be in a management position within a large healthcare company. Then prepare a SWOT analysis identifying your Strengths, Weakness, Opportunities and Threats in achieving your goal.

More than likely your ultimate aspirations will take more than 5 years to achieve. However, from your SWOT list I then want you to prepare a 5-year strategic plan for moving toward and/or achieving your goal.

Please show what your strategic plan will be for each year i.e. In year one I plan to finish my MBA, In year two I plan to land a job with a major healthcare company etc. Along with each strategy please include tactics you will use each year to achieve the strategy i.e. I plan to finish my MBA by doubling up the number of courses I will take in year one, In year two I plan land a job with a healthcare major company by submitting my resume to x number of companies.
