Strategic planning is a formal activity carried out periodically by top managers, but it is vulnerable to change. Strategic thinking is an informal activity that occurs intermittently throughout an organization, but it tends to be non-cumulative.Keidel offers a framework for integrating strategic planning and strategic thinking that leverages the strengths of both. The key to his work is the application of simple geometric forms'especially, 2x2 grids and triangles'that help organizationStrategic planningPlanningStrategic planning.Planning.658.4/092Keidel Robert W.115459MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910791123103321The geometry of strategy3754613UNINA
