The Strategic Business Model

The strategic business model is the government-business relations model that is most realistic. This is because if all the requirements of this model are satisfied, then it is easy to fulfill the other requirements. This model emphasizes business practice and success. It is built on the principles that a business can be highly competitive by using resources most efficiently and effectively, competing to succeed in business through ingenuity and hard work, and playing the game well. The model also stresses partnership achieved by collaborating with other strong competitors, creating good will, networking, and concentrating on comparative strengths. In practice, the model requires reasonable taxes and regulations, firm policies, and protection in international competition. The model also requires the practical use and exploitation of national resources.

It goes without saying that for any business to succeed, it has to draw a strategy and have a plan for it to start and successfully develop operations. It is vital for businesses to formulate business strategies which indicate how they are intending to achieve set goals. It is through strategic management that organizations are able to frame a blueprint for generating profits. The practicality of the strategic business model can be seen even in government operations. For example, in order for America to increase its productivity, strengthen its leadership in the international market and improve the citizens’ standards of living, it must ensure lower cost and easy access to high quality education and training for all Americans. The country should also maintain long-term federal investments in science and technology leadership as well as reform and simplify the tax code to stimulate investment and attract global capital to the United States. It is not easy for the country to plan and achieve all these without the strategic business model.
