Introduction

Strategy Implementation is a process by which strategies and policies are put into action through the development of programs, budgets, and procedures. This process might involve changes within the overall culture, structure, and/or management system of the entire organization. Except when such drastic corporate wide changes are needed, however, the implementation of strategy is typically conducted by middle and lower-level managers, with review by top management. Sometimes referred to as operational planning, strategy implementation often involves day-to-day decisions in resource allocation.
