, Introduction
Strategic control is a critical component of the strategic management process, enabling
organizations like Netcare a leading healthcare provider in Africa to ensure that their
strategies remain aligned with dynamic environmental conditions and organizational
objectives. In the highly regulated and rapidly evolving healthcare sector, strategic control
acts as a feedback mechanism, allowing Netcare to detect deviations, adapt to disruptions
e.g., regulatory changes, technological advancements, or public health crises, and
maintain its mission of delivering high-quality patient care. And then integrating strategic
control into each phase of the strategic management process formation, implementation,
and evaluation Netcare ensures agility, accountability, and sustained competitiveness.
