Organizations of all sizes acknowledge that a geospatial strategy is critical to successfully implementing GIS and obtaining location intelligence. A comprehensive geospatial strategy identifies the best ways to align technology, processes, and people with organizational goals, objectives, and needs. The Esri Method is a proven, iterative approach that helps organizations effectively define and execute a geospatial strategy. Adopters of the Esri Method will be able to better understand their organizational needs and challenges, develop a sound plan to address them, and prioritize their activities to implement high-value capabilities quickly. By applying the Esri Method, these organizations can achieve greater success with GIS. 

This workshop will address the following topics with exercises and real-world examples:

• Recognizing organizational needs
• Understanding success measures and challenges
• Designing solutions
• Creating a plan and roadmap
• Executing the plan and delivering business value
