Introduction

Strategic management is extremely important for an organization to meet its goals. Gathering information from a variety of sources will help you to understand the organization's business environment and the current decision-making process. The lack of a written strategic management plan does not mean that there is no plan in the organization. Rather, goals and objectives may be verbally articulated.

Activity Instructions

This paper involves writing a two-page analysis of an organization's strategic management plan. You can either choose your current employer, a past employer, or an organization in your preferred field. It is strongly recommended that you select your current employer as this will make the Capstone paper easier to write. Please be mindful that the company that you select for this exercise should be the same as that used for your Capstone paper.

This paper should address four main topics and can be applied to the Capstone Paper:

1. Introduce your selected company as well as its business or principle products.
2. How is strategic management formulated? This includes goals and objectives.
3. Who participates in this process? Does this process result in a well-devised, functional strategy that is effective for the organization?
4. Do you think this strategy is appropriate for the organization? Evaluate whether it is a well-functioning strategy or not.
