Abstract: Abstract Strategic planning process is a crucial part of business development of any company. Especially, it can be stated so for IT organizations, where external environment is turbulent. In this research, we analyze and develop strategic planning processes in Russian IT companies, bringing both practical and academic values. This research is aimed to cover issues that lie in the intersection of strategic management, operational management, and organizational behavior. The problem of this research lies in fact that strategic planning process in some Russian companies is low efficient due to its non-agility and unclear organization on microlevel. The study discovers new research field and brings contribution, such as combination of the main advantages of agile and strategy-as-practice (SasP) implementation. It contains the overview and analysis of theoretical and empirical foundations related to the research problem and overview of the best international business practices in this field of research. The results are based on Russian IT companies’ case study, qualitative interviews, and quantitative survey.
