Abstract: Strategic thinking is significant for organisations to ensure sustainability in the competitive world. The understanding of its elements is yet limited. The theorisation of strategic thinking till date is insufficient for organisational complexities and limits the manner in which it can be harnessed for professional demands. This paper adopts a systematic method to review 125 papers on strategic thinking from 1978 to 2016. The themes identified across the available literature then served the basis for two individual models (elements and process of strategic thinking) proposed in paper. Based on discussion, several avenues for future research are suggested.
