1.Explain the setting of rights priorities and objectives for business strategy planning.

Answer :  Strategic planning is crucial to profitable business growth, but companies typically realise only about 63% of their business strategy's potential financial value because of defects and breakdowns in strategic planning and implementation.

The key to strategic management is to understand that people communicating and working together will create this future, not some words written down on paper.

Strategic management does not replace traditional management activities such as budgeting, planning, monitoring, marketing, reporting, and controlling

6.Write an essay on ‘Why Strategies fail’?

Answer : It's not just the methodology. Here are five reasons strategy fails in small businesses, in midsize businesses, and in large enterprises:

1. The Blame Game

How many times have you seen a strategy move into execution, then fail? Typically, the postmortem involves blame. It was poor leadership. We didn't execute correctly. We had bad market data. Our customers decided they wanted something else. The timing was off. There are hundreds more, and you've heard many of them.

Underneath the failure is something deeper -- a strategy creation process that's gone off the rails.
