Title | : | Strategy in A Digitally Disrupted Environment |
Country | : | |
Authors | : | Dr. Sean Stein Smith |
Abstract: Strategy and strategic planning are essential for the long-term success of organizations, regardless of industry, or whether the organization is profit driven or mission oriented. Charting the course for the organization requires a broad base of inputs sources as well as incorporating the needs of end users within the decision making process. Planning for the long-term, however, is critically dependent on the following reality. All organizations must produce more resources through operational activities than are consumed by those same operational activities. If this situation fails to occur, the entity will not remain in business for long. Stated differently, in order to successfully plan and execute long term strategies at an organizational level, it is imperative that management professionals implement and execute short-term objectives consistently.
