Implementation and Action

What’s Next: The SFU Strategy will be realized through thoughtful implementation and meaningful action. Delivery of the strategy will be integrated with existing planning and budget cycles to bring the strategy into formal decision-making structures.

As we move into implementation, we will remain committed to ongoing input from faculty, staff, students and other communities, as well as establishing a process that is representative of our vision.

Implementation process

Co-leads have been appointed for each priority to bolster collaboration, ensure alignment and hear from the internal community. Each pair of co-leads has established a pan-university working group to establish metrics for success and identify annual initiatives.

Metrics will be reported to the Board of Governors regularly, along with progress against identified initiatives.

Reporting and metrics

Year One report

In our first year of implementation (2023–24), we established a framework to translate strategy to action. We identified co-leads to propel each of the four priorities forward, developed an annual implementation plan to articulate the actions SFU will pursue and created a reporting approach to celebrate accomplishments and foster accountability.

Year Two actions

Year Two of implementation (24-25) is aimed at continuing work that is already underway at SFU in each of our four priority areas. This work will be very focused in scope, in recognition that faculties and units across the university are hard at work developing SFU's new Academic Plan.
