The document discusses different views of strategy development in organizations. It states that strategic development is better described as a process of continuity and momentum, with only periodic transformational changes, rather than one-off major changes. Strategy typically develops incrementally within an existing strategic direction. There are also periods of flux and occasional transformational changes in strategic direction. Overall, the development of organizational strategy can be seen as a process of gradual evolution and consolidation over time.
SWOT and TOWS are strategy tools used in order to achieve the targeted goals of the organisation.
Used by profit making as well as Non profit making organizations.
Can be implemented at both the organizational levels (companies, departments and divisions) as well as individual development.

Strategic planning is the ongoing organizational process of using available knowledge to document a business's intended direction. This process is used to-
prioritize efforts,
effectively allocate resources,
align shareholders and employees on the organization’s goals, and
ensure those goals are backed by data and sound reasoning.
International Strategic Management is a comprehensive and ongoing management planning process aimed at formulating and implementing strategies that enable a firm to compete effectively internationally.
Strategic management process involves complex cross-functional relationships of organizational components geared towards attainment of set objectives. It is a veritable tool of strategy for navigating the complexity of applying the tenets of mission and vision of organizations. This paper discusses, explains and relates how leadership of organizations harnesses resources in series of decisions and actions that determine performance and results. The complex and contingency nature of strategic management process blends an agenda resource-based, structure-conduct-performance, agency and other theories. Literature survey on the subject reveals emphasis on ways to simplify and understand the multifarious nature of strategic management process put to work for attainment of common set objectives. The challenge and burden of strategic management process rest on the shoulders of organizational leadership or senior executives charged with decisions and actions. The paper breaks down this process into strategic formulation; strategic implementation; and, strategic evaluation and control. An exercise is designed for senior executives to practice on the workings of strategic management process in groups representing organizational situations.

Introduction of Strategic Management.pptxKhubaibHikmat
The following topics are briefly explained in this ppt:
1- Understand the concept of strategy and strategic management.
2- Describe the stages of strategic management.
3- Explain strategic management model.
4- Understand important terms in strategic management.
5- Understand the nature of strategy.
This presentation of my PhD thesis presents the Strategy Execution Framework consisting of 18 success factors related to the process, content and context of the implementation effort. Collectively, these factors help organizations develop and implement their strategies to achieve sustainable organizational success.
This article presents the Strategy Execution Model– a comprehensive management model that allows managers to master one of the greatest management challenges – successfully implementing strategies. The powerful framework incorporates 18 success factors that are related to the strategy, its execution, mobilizing the people, aligning the organization and building systems to monitor and control the execution. Collectively, these tools help organizations plan and execute their strategies but also monitor, learn and adapt their strategy and its execution to achieve sustainable organizational success.
A presentation that focuses on the underlying issues surrounding decision-making. Managers and leaders will find this useful in their daily operations.
1. Views of Strategy Development
• Strategy is about the long term direction of
an organization.
• It is typically thought of in terms of major
decisions about the future.
• However it is a mistake to conceive of
organizational strategy as necessarily
developing through one-off major
changes.
DR. Z.B AWINO

2. →This understanding brings us to focus on
different views of strategy development
→As a strategic thinker how do we perceive
this development?
• The strategic development of
organizations is better described and
understood in terms of:– Continuity
– momentum
DR. Z.B AWINO
2
3. • Once an organization has adopted a
particular strategy, it tends to develop from
and within that strategy
− Rather than fundamentally changing
direction
− In other words in strategic development
drastic change is not desirable
• Historical studies of organizations have
shown that there are usually long periods
of relative continuity
DR. Z.B AWINO

4. – At this point strategy remains unchanged
or changed incrementally
• There are also periods of flux in which
strategies change but in not very clear
direction.
• Transformational change in which there is
fundamental change in strategic direction
does take place but is infrequent.
DR. Z.B AWINO

6. This pattern of behaviour in strategy development
in organizations has become known as
punctuated equilibrium
•It is the tendency of strategies to develop
incrementally with periodic transformational
Change
–A specific strategic move perhaps a product
launch
– Significant investment decision
– Strategic alliance
– Acquisition
Etc…
DR. Z.B AWINO

7. Establishes a strategic direction which,
itself guides decisions on the next
strategic move
–This in itself , helps consolidate the
strategic direction, and overtime the
overall strategic approach of the
organization becomes more
established and clear

9. • Gradual change in strategy makes a lot of
sense
– No organization could function effectively
if it were to undergo major revisions of
strategy frequently
– It is unlikely that the environment would
change so rapidly that this would be
necessary.
– Incremental change might therefore be
seen as an adaptive process to a
continually changing environment. What is
referred to as strategic fit.
DR. Z.B AWINO
9
10. • Environmental change may not always be
gradual enough for incremental change to
keep pace.
– If such incremental strategic change lags
behind environmental change , the
organization may get out of line with its
environment and, in time, need more
fundamental, or transformational, change.
• The transformational change tends to
occur at times when performance has
declined sufficiently.
DR. Z.B AWINO
10
11. →Strategists should be responsive to the
environment than being reactive
– They should be innovative
– See the best opportunities
– Manage the threats
– Monitor the rapid changes and align their
organizations to take advantage of the
available opportunities
– Strategies should be proactive
– Create new markets and transform the
strategic direction
DR. Z.B AWINO
11
12. Intended and realized views
• Intended Strategy
– It is an expression of desired strategic
direction deliberately formulated or
planned by managers
– The implementation is also planned In
terms of resource allocation, structure,
policy, procedures etc……
– Strategy in this sense is deliberate,
systematic planned process of
development and implementation
DR. Z.B AWINO
12
13. • Realised strategy is the strategy actually
being followed in practice
→Sometimes what is intended is not achieved
and ends up in totally a different strategic
objective being realized.
• Strategy could also be imposed on an
organization
• It could be imposed by an external agency such
as government, world bank, IMF, donors
(development partners) as has occurred in the
deregulation of industries in many countries; or
by a parent company on a subsidiary.
DR. Z.B AWINO
13
14. – It could be that environmental
conditions severely limit the choices that
managers can make or the strategies
they can follow.
→For example , the cutting of costs may
be forced by recession or conditions in
a commodity market
– And may mean that there is little
opportunity to follow strategies
substantially different from those of other
businesses in that market.
DR. Z.B AWINO
14
15. • If strategy is regarded as the long-term direction
of the organization which develops over time,
then it can also be seen as the outcome of
cultural and Political processes.
– The management of organizations depends a
great deal on the knowledge and experience of
those involved.
– This experience and ways of doing things are
built up over the years.
– In organizations, managers typically reconcile
different views, based on experience, through
negotiation or the exercise of power; and this
occurs within established ways of doing things,
or routines; that make up the culture of the
organization

17. Rational Analytical or Planning view
• This is a sequence of analytical and
evaluative procedures to formulate and
intended strategy and the means of
implementing.
→Includes
– Setting objectives and goals
– Analysis of the environment and the resources of
the organization
– So as to match environmental opportunities and
threats
– With resource-based strengths and weaknesses
DR. Z.B AWINO
17
18. Includes cont…
• The generation of strategic options and
their evaluation.
• And the planning of implementation
through resource allocation processes,
the structuring of the organization
DR. Z.B AWINO
18
19. Benefits of this view
• It can provide a structured means of analysis and
thinking about complex strategic problems requiring
managers to question and challenge what they take
for granted
• It can be used as a way of involving people in
strategy development, therefore helping to create
ownership of the strategy.
• Strategic planning may also help to communicate
intended strategy
• It can also be used as a means of control by
regular reviewing performance and progress
against agreed objective or previously agreed
strategic direction
DR. Z.B AWINO
19
20. • It can be a useful means of co-ordination,
for example by bringing together the
various SBU strategies within an overall
corporate strategy, or ensuring that
resources within a business are
coordinated to put strategy into effect
• It can encourage a longer –term view of
strategy than might otherwise occur.
DR. Z.B AWINO
20
21. Power behavioral view
or
Command view
This is a strategy which develops through the
direction of an individual or group, but not
necessarily through formal planning.
–At the extreme, strategy could be seen as the
product of an autocratic leader who brooks
no argument and sees other managers as
there to implement his or her decisions
–A common example is where a dominant
leader has become personally associated
with strategy development of the organization
DR. Z.B AWINO
21
22. – It could also be that the leader turned
round the business in times of difficulty
and as such personifies the success of the
organization.
– Charismatic leaders are also often seen
as central to the strategy of their
organization
– Their personality or reputation may be
seen as a positive force which may be
used to influence strategic direction
DR. Z.B AWINO
22
23. The logical incremental
view
•It is the deliberate development of strategy by
learning through doing
•Managers have a view of where they want the
organization to be in years to come and try to move
towards this position in an evolutionary way.
•They do this by attempting to ensure the success
and development of a strong, secure, but flexible
core business.
•Building on the experience gained in that business to
inform decisions about the development of the
business.
DR. Z.B AWINO
23
24. Amount of change
• Since change will be gradual , the possibility of creating
and developing a commitment to change throughout the
organization is increased.
• It is a process through which the organization keeps
itself in line with changes in the environment.
