An association dedicated to advancing strategic thought
has awarded the Federal Aviation Administration its 2004
Richard Goldman Strategic Planning Award in recognition
of FAA’s “Flight Plan 2004–2005.”
A panel of judges drawn from corporate and academic
specialists in strategy and management selected the
flight plan for “competency in strategy formulation;
utilization of industry trends; knowledge and use of
customer data; realization of strategic goals; application
of earlier lessons; innovation; and use of performance
measures to determine successes,” FAA has announced.
It said the flight plan, updated yearly and scalable to
specific budgets, “sets measurable goals and initiatives
to achieve increased aviation safety, greater airspace
capacity, international leadership, and organizational
excellence,” and that it directly supports the Department
of Transportation
