Abstract: Abstract The aim of strategy—sustainable competitive impact—sounds simple. But it is not. This chapter lays the groundwork for strategic thinking, from developing a different mindset to ensuring a focus on creating and maintaining a high-performance organization. Outlining a holistic, flexible approach to strategic planning, the chapter provides the basic processes that will allow organizations to embrace uncertainty, balancing short-term incremental changes with longer-term transformational initiatives.
