Optimizing the future trajectory of information flow and resource allocation: A management model for testing and assessing strategic plans

Abstract

Purpose

This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies.

Design/methodology/approach

This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context.

Findings

This research paper concentrates on forming a dynamic system of measuring the success of strategic plans, as a tool with which managers can keep track of their projects in real time. Based on insights gained from a public organization in Turkey, the study reveals that managers can indeed simulate their future strategic plans using a mathematical model, and advocates that managers make use of this to determine whether sufficient resource is available to optimize the value of their contributions.

Originality/value

The briefing saves busy executives, strategists and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
