Chapter 5 in Neo Strategic Management, 2023, pp 63-75 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract It is the contention of the author that classic managerial functions starting with planning and proceeding to staffing, directing, and controlling have, as a result of the dynamics analyzed above, lost ground. Forces of change in the corporation, the managers, the technology, and the environment as a whole have induced grass root change. This change has rendered the classic tenants of the managerial function obsolete. What could emerge, in this author’s view, is a managerial process based on three tenants: neo-strategic thinking, strategic fulfillment, and strategic control. Each of those constitutes a concept of its own and each of those relates to the other within a systems relationship. Strategic thinking leads to strategic fulfillment and strategic control, in that sequence. A feedback completes the process. Neo-strategic thinking constitutes the core. It is tantamount to positioning of the organization within a rather blurred distant environment, building a malleable resource profile, identifying modes of ultimate reach and dynamic process reconfiguration in response to techno-economic driver shifts.
