All business planning is not strategy

Posted by Grant Brewer on 28 Sep 2006 | Comments (0)

The idea of what is strategic or what comprises strategy is often confused. The terms themselves are so overused that they risk losing any meaning at all. What is often necessary in organisations is a sense of getting back to basics. It is often forgotten that strategy is about the "big picture"; it relates to the overall landscape or context within which an organisation exists. Strategy is not about the day to day tactics.

Delivering the Dream

Posted by Grant Brewer on 01 Sep 2006 | Comments (2)

Interesting to see that Tony Manning has published a new book: Delivering the Dream. Instead of the usual corporate strategy thing he "provides a blue print" for getting effective service delivery in the public sector. Should be an interesting read – Tony's books usually are. I'll give it a review after reading it.
