About this Unit
Strategic management processes determine the direction of an enterprise and its viability in the light of the changes in its environments. This unit examines strategic management processes, recognising the interests of stakeholders and a range of external and internal constraints. It critically examines the major theoretical approaches to strategy and emerging trends. A strong emphasis is on the application of knowledge to industry and organisational contexts relevant to the student. Participants research and analyse how decision-making processes, leadership, and organisational politics impact on the strategy process. A dynamic, contingent and contested view of contemporary strategic management processes is presented.
