better appreciate the productivity- reward relationships
inherent in every strategic plan.
Gaps and overlaps in activities among diverse
individuals and groups should be reduced as strategy
formulation leads to a clarification of role
differentiations.
Resistance to change should be reduced.
15. Costly in terms of hours spent by managers in
the planning exercise, also the
division’s/department's productivity may be
