Framework for Understanding Strategy Realization PPT

This PPT slide, part of the 50-slide Evolution of Strategy PowerPoint presentation, illustrates the relationship between intended, deliberate, and realized strategies, emphasizing the complexity of strategic formulation. At the top, the "Intended Strategy" represents the initial vision or plan set by leadership. This is the starting point, where goals and objectives are defined.

Moving to the right, the "Deliberate Strategy" signifies the actions taken to implement the intended strategy. This phase involves careful planning and execution, where the organization aligns resources and capabilities to achieve the desired outcomes. However, it is crucial to note that this process is not linear.

The arrows flowing downward from the deliberate strategy indicate the multitude of internal and external influences that can affect the outcome. These influences can include market dynamics, competitive actions, regulatory changes, and organizational culture. This highlights that while strategies are formulated with intent, the realization of those strategies is often subject to unforeseen variables.

Finally, the "Realized Strategy" is the culmination of both the intended and deliberate strategies, shaped by the various influences encountered along the way. It reflects what the organization has actually achieved, which may differ from the original intent due to the complexities of execution.

Understanding this framework is vital for executives as it underscores the importance of adaptability and responsiveness in strategic management. It serves as a reminder that successful strategy is not just about planning, but also about navigating the unpredictable nature of business environments.
