Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to present how the paradoxical nature of the governance landscape in Denmark and strategic models and/or concepts of a normative character may be combined to develop the idea of a strategic governance model and typologies of this. This idea is central to a current PhD project. The methodology of this is also briefly presented in order to provide a complete picture of how research on the topic of strategic governance in a public sector setting is approached. With the project still in its early phase, this paper will only offer early indications of the analysis as oppose to findings or conclusions and instead focus on presenting the concept of strategic governance. Following a brief introduction, the paper will set out by discussing the concept of governance and governance profile. Second, the paper provides a brief discussion of strategic perspectives and schools, which will lead to how the concept of strategic governance may be conceived. Hereafter the paper elaborate on the methodology of the PhD research conducted before offering some early indications and closing remarks.
