In recent months, the VUture steering cycle working group, together with many colleagues, has been identifying possible adjustments to the cycle. The steering cycle includes the framework memorandum, the annual plans of faculties, departments and the VU, the management reports and the annual report.
More attention to strategic goals and mutual alignment
The aim of this project is to build into this cycle more attention for looking ahead and for VU's strategic goals, and for better coordination between faculties and services. In doing so, we aim to make optimal use of the VU-wide data we have in-house. And where possible, reduce the administrative burden of the cycle. Our analysis shows that we can create more calm in the cycle by shifting with the management reports; the framework memorandum and the annual plan.
