Organizations must think and act strategically if they are going to survive and thrive within uncertain and changing political, economic and technological contexts. The strategic level of planning is a tool to help clarify what is really important and to help individuals within organizations to identify reasonable goals rather than those that may be vague, unrealistic or impossible. The strategic plan and its subset, long-range facilities plan, should summarize a pattern of possibilities across programs, projects, policies and resource allocations. This paper describes modern management philosophies, barriers to change, then presents strategic directions and an analysis with recommendations specific to museum facility management. Future directions for museums are also presented to enable a long-term view and support to strategic plans for museums
