Strategic Management 2

The purpose of this simulation is to give you experience in the process of developing a strategic plan and meeting the challenges of implementing it successfully in an interactive setting that closely mirrors a real-world environment.

In this task, you will discuss the factors a manager must consider and the key actions, concepts, and adjustments that a manager can use to help assure success in achieving the objectives contained in the strategic plan. You should reflect on how the management decisions you made during the simulation compared to the decisions that would be necessary to achieve great execution of a strategic plan and how your execution of your plan could have been improved.
