STRATEGIES THAT WORK
Strategic Management: four critical processes

- *Communicating strategic objectives and measures and linking them to Operations – this includes establishing a two -way communication with stakeholders to encourage dialogue to refine processes and promote feedback.
- *Planning targets to align strategic involves – including identifying targets of each of the objectives measured by the KPIs. Ideally, individual targets are set for strategic objectives and projects, which are in turn linked to the larger strategic objectives.
- *Enhancing strategic feedback and learning – this includes learning from performance information and using the findings from the balanced scorecard to refine decision making.
