Video Summary

In the video, the speaker introduces Dr. Chris Bellen, the president-elect, and Jeffrey Labov, the executive director, to discuss the strategic plans for AOCOPM and AOBPM. Dr. Bellen shares his enthusiasm for strategic planning, noting the initiatives have already started after a productive STRATMAP meeting on March 15. The emphasis is on improving organizational functions by setting clear goals, aligning efforts, and enhancing performance. They discuss the strengths and weaknesses identified through a SWOT analysis, emphasizing opportunities like student outreach and potential threats like structural changes proposed by AOA. Financially, they highlight a conservative strategy to manage the organization’s funds effectively.<br /><br />The session also stresses the importance of engaging students and residents, encouraging early career involvement, and potentially restructuring division elections. There's a focus on the operationalization of OPAM, aimed at broadening their outreach to include non-osteopathic professionals. Students are given due importance, and there's a call to enhance student participation through research presentations and chapter formations. The strategic plan is seen as vital to sustaining and growing the organization in the face of external changes and potential AOA restructuring.
