What is strategy?

Johnson , Scholes and


Whittington (JS&W)
Strategy is:
the direction and scope of an organization over the long

term, which achieves advantage in a changing environment


through its configuration of resources and competences with
the aim of fulfilling stakeholder expectations. Strategic
decisions are made under conditions of complexity and
uncertainty; they have a wide impact on the organization
and often lead to major change.

maturity/shakeout and decline. Each phase has typical implications for
customers, competitors, products and profits.

Strategic group analysis examines the strategic space occupied by


groups of close competitors in order to identify potential competitive
advantage.
