Strategic Planning In fall 2021, the forum began a strategic planning effort that will continue to be a priority in 2022. The planning exercise is an opportunity for the forum members to reflect on the progress the group has made over the past 5 years, to consider what the field of regenerative medicine needs to advance, and to decide on the strategic direction for the group over the next 3â5 years. As a result of that work, the forum may modify the existing working group structure and/or develop new working groups or areas of interest. The strategic planning exercise consists of several phases, each with a distinct focus. Successive phases of the process align with upcoming forum meetings in 2022. At the forum meeting in November 2021, the group assessed the strengths and weaknesses of the forum and the needs of the field of regenerative medicine as part of the Reflection Phase. During the Direction Phase planned for spring 2022, the forum will define the groupâs vision and guiding principles and refine high- level strategic objectives. Through the Adoption Phase in summer 2022, members will affirm the groupâs purpose, establish priorities, and update the working group structure. Finally, in the Implementation Phase during fall 2022, the forum will set quarterly goals and implement accountability mechanisms. 2 | Forum on Regenerative Medicine
