PART 3:  How does the new learning apply to your Foundation Paper? How does the “new” learning fit in with your basic foundation paper strategic plan?  Do you need to revaluate your original plan? Is leadership a constant component?  How does the material move you towards your final goal? Do you need to change your strategy?  Please provide details.
