Discussion 1
"Foundations of Strategic Management" Please respond to the
following:
Analyze the concepts of strategic planning and strategic
management. Determine two fundamental differences between
the concepts that you have analyzed, and provide one example
of strategic management and one example of strategic planning
as they relate to healthcare organizations.
Strategic management is the continuous planning, monitoring,
analysis and assessment of all that is necessary for an
organization to meet its goals and objectives. It includes the
collection of continuous activities and processes that an
organization use to coordinate and direct resources and actions
with vision, mission of the organization for better results. It
involves Analyzing internal and external strengths and
weaknesses; Formulating action plans; Executing action plans;
Evaluating to what degree action plans have been successful
and making changes when desired results are not being
produced.
The strategic planning is an organizational management activity
that is used to determine the vision, mission, goals and
objectives of an organization. The strategic planning process
includes establishing the sequence in which the goals and
5. objectives should fall so that the organization is enabled to
reach its vision. It involves setting priorities, focusing energy
and resources, strengthening operations, ensuring
that employees and other stakeholders are working toward the
common goals, establishing agreement around intended
outcomes, and carrying out assessments and adjustments to the
organization's direction in response to a changing environment.
Key differences between strategic planning and strategic
management are:
· Strategic planning is a future-oriented activity which tends to
ascertain the organizational strategy and used to set priorities
while strategic management is a series of decisions or moves
taken by the organization management in relation to the
formulation and execution of strategies to achieve
organizational goals.
· Strategic planning focuses on making optimal strategic
decisions making it an analytical activity while strategic
management is all about producing strategic results making it an
action oriented activity.
Examples in Healthcare organizations:
The changing environmental conditions have led to not
emergency of new diseases that need to be determined,
machines for their treatment obtained and relevant personnel
trained to combat the diseases and provide care.
Strategic planning would involve setting up goals and
objectives to ensure the healthcare sector is able to solve these
problems. It would include prioritizing the areas to be looked
and probable actions to be undertaken.
Strategic Management would involve a long term processes of
ensuring all the issues facing the sector at that time are
addressed. It would involve monitoring, analysis and assessing
the activities being undertaken to ensure they solve the
problems appropriately. It would involve obtaining the most
appropriate machines, ensuring the trained personnel are doing
the right job to solve the problems and if any adjustments to
training or machines need to be made and done.
6. Examine the concepts of analytical and emergent approaches to
strategic management. Next, imagine that you are a hospital
administrator. Determine which of the two approaches--
analytical or emergent--would be more effective in planning to
expand services to surrounding communities. Provide an
example of the type of information that would be necessary
when using the approach that you have deemed to be more
effective.
The emergent approach and the analytical model are the two
main approaches to strategic management.
Emergent approach sees everything in constant dynamics, and
therefore does not have a definite, set well-defined or final
goal, rather it leaves the strategy open and enables to shape it
constantly. Emergent strategy is undertaken by an organization
that analyzes its environment constantly and implements its
strategy simultaneously. The main advantages of emergent
approach are flexibility and speed of response to emerging
strategic opportunities.
Analytical approach depends on the development of a logical
sequenced of steps or process linear thinking. It uses the basic
phases of strategic management, such analysis of environment,
strategy formulation, strategy implementation and strategic
control. It uses feedback to provide an opportunity to respond to
sudden changes in the environment and modify the original
strategy, to create updated strategy. However, it is rigid and
inflexible.
When planning to expand services to the surrounding
community, Emergent approach would be more effective. This
is because health care systems and environment are dynamic
and very competitive. The health care system would therefore
require a flexible approach.
An information that could be necessary when using the
approach is when determining the equipment to install at your
new facilities. This is because technology is changing fast and
improved equipment are on the market every now and again.

Making a Mind Map Script
For your assignment, you will create a mind map. It is important
that you use a tool such as Popplet®, Mindmeister®, or
Microsoft® Word. If you choose a Microsoft® Word document,
be mindful of the Mind map requirement; with this format, you
would still create text boxes within a diagram, and not write a
paper.
Now that you have selected the tool you will use, you can create
your mind map. Think of a Mind map as a relationship builder
among similar concepts. Think about how you would organize
your thoughts on the topics you will address. You might have a
major subject, such as mediation. Then, you might choose
several topics that relate to mediation, such as advantages of
mediation and disadvantages of mediation, as well as mediator
qualifications. Then, in your third layer, you might discuss
those advantages, disadvantages and qualifications.
As another example, let’s say you were creating a mind map
about weather in the United States. Your first and central topic
might be United States weather. Your second layer might
include Colorado and California and the weather patterns in
those states. Your third layer might be cities and the weather
patterns there.
There are many ways to organize this project. Some students
use a single page for their mind map, while others choose
multiple pages. You might consider putting your major topic in
the center, with lines leading to secondary topics. Then, from
those secondary topics, you would add your third layer of
details.
Many students are learning how to use a mind map for the first
time in this course, but if you have experience with this tool,
then you should do well.
