Strategic planning means different things to different people. To some it means creating vision and practicing values. To others it means setting deadlines for action items and managing changes. Whether you come from the more philosophical end or the task-oriented end, strategic planning does include moving the company forward toward a shared vision through agreed-upon goals and objectives.
