The Strategy should be short and simple to revise. It should be a "living" document. That is, it will be accessed by many people often and regularly up-dated. Far better to have a simple strategy with a three year timeline than a comprehensive strategy covering the next two decades but is unreadable and too daunting to refresh every few years. While the longer term goals must be a constant consideration, strategies beyond 5 years are notoriously vague and hard to use.
