Description
This thesis was prepared as a case study of the American Society of
Landscape Architects to determine the potential utility and transferability
of long-range planning in voluntary organizations. Methods
employed in substantiating this concept and its corollaries include:
questionnaires, interviews, and scholarly research. The thesis is
divided into six objectives testing three hypotheses. The categories
for measurement are: involvement of young members, increase in educational
opportunities, development of a public relations program,
support to private practice, development of a research program, and
reorientation and financing. After extensive analysis it can be determined
that long-range planning is an essential component in effecting
predetermined objectives.
