Use Strategy and Goals in Strategic Planning Workspace to create boards that organize your organization's strategic plans, strategic priorities, goals, and targets in a single, focused view.

## Strategy and Goals key components {#explore-strategy-goal-strategy__section_jwz_vnb_m3c}

Understanding the key components of Strategy and Goals in Strategic Planning Workspace helps you structure your organization's strategic vision and track progress toward meaningful outcomes.

The key components for managing enterprise goals in Strategy and Goals are strategic plans, strategic priorities, goals, targets, and any work items associated with goals or targets.

A board is a collection of strategic plans, strategic priorities, goals, and targets based on your selected filter criteria---helping you stay focused and manage them effectively.

For an example of the structure of a strategy from the strategic plan level down to targets, see [Enterprise strategy example](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/Y4dHA19bMQixZKzSyx_vAw "In Strategy and Goals, you start by creating a strategic plan that captures your organization's mission, vision, and values. You then define strategic priorities that align with your mission and vision of your organization, and create goals under each priority to establish what your organization wants to achieve. For each goal, you can set targets to track and measure progress toward achieving it.").

## Board types {#explore-strategy-goal-strategy__section_board_types}

When you create a board, you can choose whether to base it on strategic plans, goals, or both.

* A strategy-based board lets you create and manage strategic plans and priorities, aligning high-level direction with the priorities your teams are executing against.
* A goals-based board lets you create goals and targets that align with your strategic priorities, with the ability to tailor the board by entity type and entity to focus on the goals that matter most.
* A combined strategy and goals board includes two pages---Strategy and Goals---supporting both strategic planning and goal execution within a single board.
{#explore-strategy-goal-strategy__ul_o4x_c4y_k3c}

For any board type, you can define what items appear using advanced filter conditions, giving you precise control over the scope and focus of each view. For details, see [Managing boards in Strategic Planning Workspace](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/IibhRPmSC8Q6iBB_S0W0BQ "Using boards in Strategy and Goals within Strategic Planning Workspace, you can organize strategic plans, priorities, goals, and targets in a single, focused view.") and [Managing strategy and goals using boards](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/9DREub8cV5~T8NSn4Uzi1g "After creating a board, you can create strategic plans, priorities, goals, and targets that align with your strategic priorities to drive business outcomes.").

## Now Assist for Strategic Portfolio Management (SPM) capabilities for Strategy and Goals {#explore-strategy-goal-strategy__section_now_assist}

If Now Assist for Strategic Portfolio Management (SPM) is installed, you can use the following capabilities to enhance your strategic planning and goal management:

* With the Goals insights skill, you can generate AI-powered insights for goals and review the results to identify at-risk goals, assess forecasted statuses, and act on recommendations before goals fall off track. For details, see [Generate insights for a goal](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/CJaFPzQ9icCXfILQcEg~Wg "Review AI-generated insights to identify at-risk goals, assess forecasted statuses, and act on recommendations before goals fall off track.").
* With the Target generation skill, you can generate measurable targets for your goals, reducing the effort required to define quantifiable success criteria. For details, see [Generate targets for a goal](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/scPlmwneH1mUPkr0fTGfng "Generate measurable targets for your goals in Strategic Planning Workspace using Now Assist for SPM.").

## Comparing portfolio plan goals with enterprise goals (Strategy and Goals) {#explore-strategy-goal-strategy__section_cc1_jyv_dwb}

Creating goals for portfolio plans requires selecting a lens hierarchy and defining goals at the entity level based on the portfolio plan's hierarchy, which can limit flexibility and make it difficult to get started.

In Strategy and Goals, you can create boards and manage goals directly based on board filter criteria, without defining a lens hierarchy, providing a simpler and more flexible approach.

If you are already managing goals in portfolio plans, you can create corresponding boards based on your assigned entities or filter criteria to manage your goals and targets in one location without any additional
configuration. For a portfolio plan created using the Goals lens, the goals displayed in the portfolio plan match the goals displayed on a board when both are configured with the same filter criteria.  
* Portfolio plan goals: Create goals for your portfolio plans, set targets for them, and evaluate the progress of the goals and targets in Strategic Planning Workspace to accomplish your organizational plans and drive business outcomes. For details, see [Managing portfolio plan goals in Strategic Planning Workspace](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/wA2EcKtLW32NTN1k6MLeJg "Create goals for your portfolio plans, set targets for them, and evaluate the progress of the goals and targets in Strategic Planning Workspace to accomplish your organizational plans and drive business outcomes.").
* Enterprise goals (Strategy and Goals): Create boards to manage your organization's strategic plans (Mission, Vision, and values), strategic priorities, goals, and targets in a single, focused view. Create boards to manager org splans (missin, vision, values), sps, goals, and targets for your organization level. For details, see [Managing boards in Strategic Planning Workspace](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/IibhRPmSC8Q6iBB_S0W0BQ "Using boards in Strategy and Goals within Strategic Planning Workspace, you can organize strategic plans, priorities, goals, and targets in a single, focused view.") and [Managing strategy and goals using boards](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/9DREub8cV5~T8NSn4Uzi1g "After creating a board, you can create strategic plans, priorities, goals, and targets that align with your strategic priorities to drive business outcomes.").

Nota:  
Strategic plans and strategic priorities for portfolio plans can still be created using the list view within the Strategic Planning Workspace or the classic UI. The key difference is that in Strategy and Goals, you can create these directly within the workspace --- whereas for portfolio plans, they must be created outside the workspace and then associated with goals inside it.
