Implementing Strategy

Managing the implementation and execution of strategy is easily the most demanding and time-consuming part of the strategic management process. Good strategy execution entails that managers pay careful attention to how key internal business processes are performed and see to it that employees’ efforts are directed toward the accomplishment of desired operational outcomes.

The task of implementing and executing the strategy also necessitates an ongoing analysis of the efficiency and effectiveness of a company’s internal activities and a managerial awareness of new technological developments that might improve business processes.

Successful organizations achieve operating excellence and execute strategy proficiently.
