This document discusses how organizational culture and history influence strategy. It defines strategic drift as strategies that fail to keep pace with environmental changes due to cultural and historical influences. Left unaddressed, strategic drift can lead organizations into a period of flux and declining performance. The document examines how organizational culture, including stories, symbols, power structures and organizational structure are manifested in the cultural web and how these influence strategic decision making. It also discusses how early decisions can result in path dependency that locks organizations into certain strategic paths. Strategists must understand an organization's cultural web and history to avoid strategic drift.

The failure of researchers to link evidence to policy and practice produces evidence that no one uses, impedes innovation, and leads to mediocre or even detrimental development policies. To help improve the definition, design, and implementation of policy research, researchers should adopt a strategic outcome-oriented approach.
Preparation for Policy Formulation, Data on Educational Personnel_20231223_11...DrHafizKosar
What Is Policy?
Policy refers to a purposeful set of principles designed to steer decision making and attain logical results. It serves as a declaration of intentions and is put into action as a method or set of guidelines. Typically endorsed by a governing body within an organization, policies provide a framework for consistent and informed choices, helping to align actions with desired objectives.
Educational Policy
Educational policy refers to a set of principles, guidelines, laws, and strategies formulated by governments or educational authorities to regulate and guide the development and functioning of the education system within a specific jurisdiction.
Policy Formulation
The policy formulation process is a crucial aspect of governance that involves the systematic development and establishment of principles, guidelines, and actions to address specific issues or achieve particular objectives. The Importance of Policy Formulation
Policy formulation plays a critical role in shaping society and addressing important issues. Policies guide decisionmaking and action, and they can have a significant impact on individuals and communities. Effective policies can promote economic growth, protect public health and safety, and advance social justice and equality.Factors Affecting Educational Policies
Social Factors: Changing demographics drive the need for inclusive education systems. Social pressure prompts policymakers to create policies ensuring equal educational opportunities. Policies aim to promote diversity, multiculturalism, and inclusivity in schools.
Political Factors: Education policy is shaped by the ideologies and priorities of the ruling government. Governments recognize the importance of an educated citizenry for power and dominance. Specific policies depend on political beliefs; conservative governments may streamline curriculum, while liberal ones emphasize social justice and inclusion.
Economic Factors: Economic development, resource availability, and funding priorities determine financial investment in education. Limited financial backing results in a lack of resources and support for students. Affluent societies prioritize student needs and provide adequate funding for services and resources.

Artificial intelligence (AI) offers new opportunities to radically reinvent the way we do business. This study explores how CEOs and top decision makers around the world are responding to the transformative potential of AI.
The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
