OD 660 - Organizational Analysis & Strategy (3)

This course focuses attention on strategic management as a process. It is comprised of two interrelated segments; strategic formulation or planning, and strategy implementation. At the foundation, strategic management relates to moving an organization towards a defined future. Each organization faces different surrounding circumstances, different external environmental influences, and different internal structural capacities. This course establishes that while the process may be the same for each organization, the prioritization of process elements, the people involved, and the emphasis will be different. In the end, students will understand the strategic management process as an art and a science.
