SUMMARY:Breeding to Strategy: The Role of Production Planning in Organizational Success
DESCRIPTION:Production planning ensures that the right number of dogs\, with the necessary traits\, are available at the right time to meet training\, client\, and breeding demands. Beyond numbers\, it is a key element of strategic planning that requires organization-wide attention. Over- or underproduction can waste resources\, while factors such as staff skills\, breeding colony fertility\, facility capacity\, volunteer availability\, and financial support all impact outcomes. This presentation will outline internal and external influences on production and provide guidance on integrating production planning into broader organizational strategy. \nAbout the Speaker:\nRachel is a private consultant specializing in reproduction\, puppy socialization and development\, behavior testing\, and strategic planning.
