In CLA1 you identified a strategy. Now it is time to execute your strategy so that organizational goals are attained. You also identified some competitive forces that may work against you; in your implementation, this must be taken into consideration.
You should develop a 4 – 6 page, APA 7th edition-formatted paper, in which you explain what strategy you would select and how you would execute the strategy, and answer the following questions:
- What will you do to execute your chosen strategy?
- What roles will management play in the execution and implementation of your strategy to strengthen the company's competitive position?
- Depending on your strategic approach, what kind of qualities will you look for in employees (skills, knowledge, ethics, etc.) that will ensure the success of your strategy?
- What type of characteristics, traits, ethics, etc. must they possess?
- How will you train them?
- By the end of strategic implementation, you should have strengthened your company's competitive position. What will you do as director to continue to increase your company's strategic position?
- Would you focus on offense, defense, or problem-solving, or delve into creation and innovation?
- Provide both quantitative and qualitative reasoning for your discussion. This could include how you will measure financials (accounting reports, budgets, etc.), customer and/or employee evaluations (quantitative surveys), sales reports, etc.
