Strategic planning and organizational design?
Answers:
A strategic plan lays out a company's path to building an economically significant and defensible position in its industry. The plan will specify the target industry, target customers, value proposition and form of the offering, and a business model to most effectively deliver the offering to the market. Once this is clearly specified it will dictate what type of organization is required to achieve the objectives. I disagree with the first answer that started with org design first. I believe that a organizational design is a natural extension of strategic planning (i.e. planning comes first). Org design will specify the required organizational assets needed to execute the strategic plan in terms of people, functions and assets.
They are intertwined. Without a strong organizational design for the company there cannot be a strong strategic plan. I would encourage the org. design be the first step. Once that is in place then look at strategic planning.
