Action Plan

Last updated by Jeff Hajek on June 6, 2023

Action plans are, in effect, roadmaps to achieve goals. They should contain a description of the improvement goal, names of people on the team, steps to be taken, names assigned to the steps, and due dates for steps.

Some action plans are simple in their layout. Others add in additional features, such as a graphical timeline, a synopsis of the current situation, graphics that show completions progress, and other bells and whistles. Advanced action plans use Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), a project management tool, to break projects down into discrete work elements.
