Long-Range Planning vs. Strategic Planning |
|
Even though many
use the terms strategic planning and long-range planning synonymic, the terms
differ in their prominence on the assumed
environment.
Long-range
planning is usually considered to assume present knowledge about future conditions.
It looks to make certain the plan's exact results over the period of its
implementation.
Strategic
planning, however, assumes that your organization must be quick to respond to a
dynamic, changing environment, which may require changes in the future.
Strategic planning, then, points out the importance of making decisions that
will ensure your organization's ability to successfully respond to changes in
the environment.
