Foreword Since the first studies by Bower and Burgelman in the early 1980’s on the phenomenon of strategic initiatives, the use of strategic initiatives in the strategic management of diversified organizations now is omnipresent. Strategic initiatives are seen as efficient answers of management teams for pressing challenges. By making use of strategic initiatives, managers can proceed flexibly and with entrepreneurial vigor from broad ideas toward specific commitments. Managing initiatives is perceived as a complex challenge by most managers. Empirical studies show that about 70% of all strategic initiatives fail to reach their goals. This statistic shows us, that successful management and implementation of strategic initiatives requires a multitude of diverse managerial skills. To date, the complexity of strategic initiatives is most often not fully taken into account in strategic management research. Almost all studies investigating strategic initiatives have concentrated either on the external or internal organizational context or have solely identified contextual factors that undermine the successful implementation of strategic initiatives. This underscores the fact that most prior research on the relationship between the organizational context and strategic initiatives is too narrow and suggests the need for a more holistic approach.

“The strategic planning is good, but the implementation of the strategy is problematic," that's the phrase we often hear. Strategic planning can be good because we have abundant literature clarifies strategic planning in our scientific treasures. On the other hand, strategy implementation is problematic because the literature that clarifies the problem of implementing each strategy is scarce. The book that discusses the problem of implementing strategy, especially in the context of discussion based on research, does not even exist yet. To fill this tremendous gap is one of this book’s objective. After carefull examination, I can share that there are at least three entry points if one wants to further understand strategy implementation. The first entry point is understanding number of factors that support the implementation of a strategy where these factors must be studied, mastered and possessed for the strategy to be successful. The second entry point is understanding that there is a framework or model that must be followed if we want to be successful in implementing strategy. The framework or model must be studied, mastered and followed so that the strategies that have been made are correctly implemented and the results are successful. The third entry point is to realize that there are a number of problems that are obstacles to the implementation of the strategy. These inhibiting problems must be studied, understood and overcome so that the strategy does not fail to implement and be successful. Each entry point above requires understanding because it has its own complexity. This book you are reading has a third point of entry. This book helps you learn and understand the factors that hinder the implementation of the strategy so that your strategy does not fail or reverse its achievement. This book helps you avoid failing to implement strategies that are very, very easy to find in any organization. Read this book to help you have systematics when deciphering what problems cause poor implementation of a strategy.

There are a range of views of the strategic development process within organisations. Some see the process as being purely creative, with little or no scope for analysis at any stage (hunch-and-hope). Others see it as being over-formalised, static and focusing on producing a strategic plan rather than on actions. The approach adopted in this book argues that for effective strategic decision making, creativity needs to be supported by structured methods. The strategic development process consists of a series of elements which need to be working effectively for the process to ensure the successful development of the organisation. These elements include objective setting and performance measurement, strategic initiative formulation, strategic evaluation and a process for modelling uncertain/uncontrollable factors. The book then presents a range of hard and soft methods and models capable of supporting them. These include the balanced scorecard, visioning, the TOWS matrix, cognitive mapping, scenario development, systems dynamics modelling, transformation methods such as reengineering, strategic investment appraisal and real option theory. The book should be of interest to both academics and practitioners concerned with strategic development and those teaching and researching in the fields of strategic management, management science and operational research. The book is developed from a previous text Strategic Planning: Models and Analytical Techniques, (Wiley, 1992) following a similar approach and including some of the same methods and models but incorporating an entirely new set of articles including contemporary classics by Eden, Kaplan, Keeney, Porter, Schoemaker and others.

In an attempt to achieve high levels of growth, profit, and competitive advantage, American businesses have been implementing a variety of management initiatives, such as TQM, reengineering, service management, self-directed work teams, and empowerment. Too often, these initiatives, when implemented individually, fail or provide only short-term results. American industry is now realizing that no single initiative can provide an overall, long-term solution. A more comprehensive, integrated approach is necessary to sustain future success. Sustaining High Performance shows you how to develop and implement an integrative "systems-thinking" strategy that will ensure a successful long-term management plan. Sustaining High Performance will help you reinvent your strategic management system (planning and change) for the 21st century and give you the tools and information to pull ahead of the competition and become a powerhouse organization.

It is vital for organisations to use company analysis to gain understanding of their limiting and enabling factors and strategic capabilities. Profits can then be maximised by selecting the most effective strategies, and through successful implementation of mergers, acquisitions and divestment opportunities. In this book Jenster and Hussey move away from the opinion based SWOT analysis commonly used, to provide a more objective step-by-step approach to objectively analysing an organisation. This important task is clearly explained, with information helpfully displayed in diagrams, and checklists of critical questions provided. In addition to the key, functional areas of management, corporate-wide approaches such as core competencies, critical success factors, industry analysis and the value chain are also examined. The book is illuminated with examples from the authors' own experiences, resulting in a practical and effective approach which will provide a foundation for corporate strategy and add a strategic dimension to a due diligence study - and so prove invaluable to MBA students and lecturers in strategic management. Every manager will be asked to participate in assessing strengths and weaknesses at some time in their career, and this book enables a considerable improvement to be made to many commonly used methods - and for those responsible for the development of strategies, it offers even more.

With a conceptual model, we focused on evaluating the current situation of strategic management practices in Abu Dhabi's semi-government sector, a little researched area, to understand the relationships between strategy formulation, implementation and evaluation, as elements, and organizational performance; to identify whether environmental dynamism plays moderating roles in these relationships; and to explore the relationship between organisational performance and organizational competiveness. Data were collected in Abu Dhabi from semi government organizations of the UAE. A questionnaire was used on a sample population of 210 organizations. 182 completed questionnaires were collected and included in the analysis. The structural equation modelling package, AMOS, was used to test the hypotheses shown in the conceptual model of the study. Our findings suggest that one dimension of strategy formulation (namely, the intensity of strategic planning), the two dimensions of strategy implementation (namely, the comprehensiveness and the alignment of strategic plan implementation), and those of strategy evaluation (namely, accountability and strategic control) are positively related to organizational performance. We found also that environmental dynamism plays a moderating role in most of these relationships and organizational performance significantly influences organizational competiveness. The academic and managerial implications of these findings for both scholars and practitioners are discussed.

Critical-to-success factors (CSFs) have become essential elements to strategic planning and no business can achieve consistent success without effectively adopting them. To take full advantage of CSFs, however, an organization must first understand what they are and how they can be used to drive organizational initiatives and processes. Critical Su
