Plus, values clarification is explicitly confronted in a systematic way early in the process.Goodstein, Nolan, and Pfeiffer take managers through all phases of the strategic planning process, including how to determine if an organization is ready for strategic planning, effectively communicate a corporate vision, recognize the role of culture in changing strategic direction, understand the various roles of a consultant, write effective mission statements and create contingency plans.
