NSCLC Biomarker Testing: Action Plan

NSCLC Biomarker Testing Action Plan Template
This Action Plan is designed to help you create a clear path for attaining your patient-centric NSCLC goals. Please use this Action Plan to prioritize your aims and action-oriented goals.

We estimate it will take approximately 30 minutes to complete this Action Plan.

After you submit your Action Plan, you will receive an email confirmation containing a link that you can use to update the plan as you make progress towards your goals. You will also be able to download the Action Plan as a PDF that you can share with key stakeholders in your organization.

First, define your goal:

Clearly articulate your goal prior to creating a scaffold of action planning. The SMART method helps individuals and teams realize and clarify their goals by being:
- Specific – keep your goal precise and focused
- Measurable – evidence-based progress will help move towards the aim
- Attainable – a reasonable goal is one that can be achieved within the stated timeline
- Relevant – the overarching objective should align with organizational- and team-based culture, goals, values
- Timely – ambitious timelines should be set forward with a realistic sense of achievement
My goal for improving NSCLC biomarker testing processes and procedures

What goal would you like to set to improve your NSCLC biomarker testing processes and workflows?
Goal 1
What do you want to achieve? Detail challenges and solutions being improved through this project. Explain the primary goal of your action plan.
Background/Context/Description
What is the context or background of the problem you are trying to solve? Identify tasks. Also, who are the involved team members identified as task owners?
Topic/Area of Goal 1

Actionable steps

Goal 1
Goal 1: Identify a stepwise progression of actions that move you to your goal. Identify tasks. These tasks may provide achievable milestones towards your primary goal. This helps to keep the progress clear and organized.
What related, smaller-scale steps are needed? Also, who are the involved team members identified as task owners?
Potential barriers to achieving Goal 1
What potential barriers could you face in fully achieving this goal (e.g., what potential challenges, or obstacles might hinder progress toward achieving the goal)?
Plan for overcoming the barriers to Goal 1
What strategies could you use to overcome these potential barriers?
Resources for Goal 1
Who are the team members involved in the process (keeping in mind that team members could be internal to laboratory processes and/or external to the lab)? What specific skillsets are needed by team members to accomplish the goal? Also, what necessary tools, assets, equipment, financial support, outsourcing, and other resources are of value to your team and necessary for completing each phase of the project?
Target completion date for Goal 1

MonthDayYear
When do you want to achieve this goal? When setting the date, consider the overarching timeframe for the goal, including incremental process steps (tasks).
Track progress towards Goal 1
What is your current progress towards achieving the goal?
Evidence of improvement outcomes from Goal 1
What achievements and milestones signify successful completion of this specified goal and related tasks? Ensure that each documented step is timely and engage your team with internal reporting to keep eyes on the prize of progress! Provide tangible, measurable results.
Lessons learned from Goal 1
