Government bodies and schools are not the only organizations that participate in strategic planning. 

Jay Pratte, Executive Director of the Miller Park Zoo in Bloomington, explains that the last time a strategic plan was created for the zoo was in 2012, and he feels that not much on that list was accomplished. 

Pratte indicates that some other zoos have begun creating smaller-scale strategic plans rather than ones that cover 10-15 years in the future. He notes the biggest goal for the zoo is modernizing its facilities. 

Another goal of Pratte's is to improve the area around the zoo, to help it blend in and match with its surroundings better.
