A study of the implementation stage of strategic decisions

Angebote / Angebote:

Implementation is the most important stage in the strategic decision making process. However, many of the previous studies on implementation have focused on the first stage of the strategic decision making process. Furthermore, these studies have only been conducted in Anglo-Saxon countries. Therefore, the question was raised whether the implementation process and the factors affecting its outcome within banks in Jordan are different to those in organisations which operate in Anglo-Saxon countries. Consequently, more research is needed into the implementation stage and the need was perceived to investigate the implementation process in organisations operating in different countries. This book is one of the first to investigate the nature of the implementation process of strategic decisions outside Europe and North America. It investigates the criteria used in Jordanian banks to measure the outcome of the implementation process. It also explores the factors which may affect this outcome. Twelve strategic decision case studies were studied and fifty-eight semi-structured interviews, observation, and documentation research were conducted to collect the data.
