Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Is Corporate Planning a failure or a success? In this article David Hussey assesses the research which has been done on the planning process and concludes that Corporate Planning obviously has the potential to improve business performance but for many reasons this potential has not been realized. He then examines the attempts which are currently being made to persuade managers to 'think strategically', to use portfolio analysis scenarios and other techniques of strategic analysis. He asserts that to succeed, the planner or the consultant in planning must use these and other analytical approaches to help managers 'to change the perceptual boundaries of the strategic problem' and generate strategies and action programmes which will enable them to compete successfully in world markets.
