Strategy in Action: Planning, Executing, and Monitoring
[WLOs: 1, 2, 3] [CLOs: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
Prior to taking this quiz,
Review Chapters 7, 8, and 9 in your course textbook, Strategic Management for Healthcare
Organizations.
Review the paper, Study of Emergent Strategy Implementation during Global
Pandemic (https://go.openathens.net/redirector/ashford.edu?
url=https%3A%2F%2Fieeexplore.ieee.org%2Fdocument%2F9750411) , to deepen your
understanding of emergent strategies. Emergent strategies are unplanned actions taken
during implementation that were not part of the original intended strategy (the best strategy
developed) or deliberate strategy (the execution of the intended strategy). They develop in
response to unforeseen or unexpected changes or events. Unlike deliberate strategies,
which are carefully planned and aligned with an organization’s objectives, emergent
strategies reflect an organization's ability to adapt in real time to evolving challenges and
opportunities. The article highlights how organizations adapted to challenges with flexible
approaches, emphasizing the need to balance deliberate strategies with the adaptability of
emergent strategies in uncertain times.
Review the Navigating Strategy Through Change infographic to learn about deliberate and
emergent strategies.
