is to be performed.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[001] The present application generally relates to business strategy improvement. Particularly, the application provides a method and system for organizational strategy correction.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[002] A business strategy is one of the most important aspects of business planning and management. A strategy defines the goals and objective of an organization at a corporate level and at a business unit level. Further the business strategy provides the means to achieve the goals set for an organization. However any strategy has a shelf life. In a dynamically evolving business environment this shelf life maybe as low as a few months.
[003] A strategy may not be effective for an organization if it is not updated and adapted as per the changes in the business environment. It is therefore of paramount importance that a strategy may be evaluated at regular intervals to ensure its applicability and areas of concerns may be brought to the attention of the organization. Further there is a need to provide a strategy roadmap to the organization in order to adapt the strategy and make the strategy further more effective.
[004] A majority of existing methods and tool focus on defining strategy, however the prior art has not explored validation of a strategy and providing suggestions in order to improve the strategy.
[005] Some of the prior art literature vaguely describes an approach to on strategy evaluation post implementation of the strategy, however none of the prior art literature discloses a evaluation before implementation of the strategy or provide business strategy roadmap to improve the strategy.
