“The priorities of the NAEDB, as set out in our Strategic Plan, will allow us to provide the federal government with concrete strategic advice on priority policy, program and service areas as they relate to Aboriginal economic development. To this end, our strategic plan will help focus the Board’s efforts to advise the federal government in achieving tangible progress in the promotion of Aboriginal economic development.”
“Crane Aboriginal Management Services has been happy to assist a number of organizations evaluate their strategic direction. Strategic planning is an organization's process of defining its strategy and making decisions on allocating its resources to pursue this strategy, including its capital and people.

"The following is the keynote address of Chief Billy Diamond presented at the Fourth Annual General Assembly of the Council for the Advancement of Native Development Officers (CANDO), which took place in Montreal, September 25 to 27, 1997. Chief Diamond's speech was both timely and moving. In it he is direct and honest highlighting - in no uncertain terms - what must happen if economic development is going to have a positive impact on the future of Aboriginal communities in Canada. His message is as vitally important today as it was in 1997.

"This strategic plan was developed with the view to establish broad long-term priorities relating to Aboriginal economic development which will guide the work and activities of the NAEDB and its Secretariat over the three year period (2012-15). These priorities will be linked to relevant objectives which will assist the federal government’s work to address the gaps between First Nation, Inuit and Métis, and non-Aboriginal Canadians.
For 2012-15, the NAEDB has identified the following long-term priorities:

"Following the release of the new Federal Framework for Aboriginal Economic Development in 2009, CANDO has recognized the need to strategically align with INAC and the revised federal policy. Additionally, a comprehensive organizational review of CANDO was completed in early 2011 in which several improvement opportunities were identified. This strategic plan will address the key issues and opportunities CANDO faces as an organization, and provide a detailed guide for implementation."
