Activity 7.2: Developing your action plan

Timing: Allow 30 minutes

Consider your own change goal, the objectives you set out, and the targets you identified in previous units of the course.

With these in mind specify:

  • at least three tactics that you will try
  • the assumptions you are making
  • a deadline for each objective.

Use the template below, which is also in your Make Change Happen Plan, to write your action plan, or use the free text box or your own notebook.
