Introduction

Managers must be able to plan strategically in order to be successful. Because effective strategic planning is critical to the future success of any organization, developing this competency is a critical component of managerial skill enhancement. Most strategic planning, however, lacks vision. It's just a straight-line extrapolation from the past to the future. In a world where change is happening faster than ever before, this is at best naive and at worst a recipe for disaster.

True strategic planning entails positioning the organization for a future that is distinct from the past.

This course will concentrate on strategic planning as an essential management system for guiding the manager and organization into the future by establishing specific goals.
