Abstract:
This study identifies the challenges in strategic planning theory and explores effectiveness in planning
practice at the strategic, tactical, and operational organizational levels using field research among employees
from the beverage, private healthcare, education, banking, aerospace, telecom, pet, and petroleum industries in
Brazil. The results show that all industries practiced the concepts presented in the strategic planning literature,
but were deficient in quantitative analysis of the strategic factors that support strengths, weaknesses,
opportunities, and threats analysis. Strategic and tactical organizational levels guide the planning process,
while operational levels were excluded from strategy-related issues.
